Anyone do supply chain consulting for Big 4? I’ve been thinking about switching over from energy to consulting for a bit. How is the workload, travel schedule, etc?

I went from supply chain in energy to B4. Happy to answer any questions. Work load varies but usually pretty demanding. Travel typically isn’t bad post Covid but depends on the client. Some want you traveling weekly or every other week. In my experience that’s been rare

Work in B4 as SC consultant. Enjoy working with Clients on an array of projects along the value chain. Trying to pivot to industry after 2yrs.

80% of my projects were very demanding - average 12hr days with worst case being 16-20hr days depending on deliverable timeline and change requests by the Client.

Travel also depends on the project, ERP / ERP implementation / warehousing & fulfillment, and quality projects tend to be in person while PMO and sourcing are virtual.
