I’m on the commercial / business side but so far it is better than consulting. Super late hours do not appear to be the norm. Obviously there are exceptions and times you have to work more but i’m working less than i was in consulting

Though my current company is an mnc but not that big and no work pressure is there, amazing work life balance. However, there is little to no learning and its very slow, the project is just starting and the client itself is not clear what they want. Do you think I should switch just because its a big 4. Please help me decide. Yoe -3.5
