Anyone have thoughts on exit opportunities after consulting & b school - I have seen a lot of peers going to later stage startup companies or tech but wanted to field a view from this bowl on what I could 'recruit' for. For context starting my MBA at a top 10 program in the fall.

I’ve been wondering the same. If I’m starting school and don’t want to do consulting afterwards, what are the best opportunities available to me

Tech is a great option, from big tech to startups. Innovation and Design is another emerging area for Post MBA. With a consulting background, you are well positioned to pivot to nearly anything. So you can explore based on what's important to you (interest in industry, compensation, types of problems your solving, social impact, and so on)
