Are there any small/medium firms that put a real focus on WLB? I love the work but hate the lifestyle. Would take a sizable pay cut to solve interesting problems 9 to 5.

Booz Allen Hamilton is great for this. Not small/medium, but you work as much as you want in my experience (40 or more).

My exact sentiments, bonus points if the work cuts out the crap of having to package everything to be client ready

My firm offers excellent WLB for those seeking it; exceptions in our strategy work (different than BCG, usually only program level in fortune 100 or senior leader level in smaller clients). I think a jump from BCG to NH would be a bit extreme, but boy would I love to see some ex-MBB/Tier 2 folks come in and straighten things up a bit.

Hi, ladies. How long has it taken you to find a new job?

I’m currently on the hunt for a new job and I’m feeling really utterly defeated. Over the past year I’ve probably applied to at least 100 jobs and I’ve been on 8 different interviews all with no offer. I’m not sure if I’m doing anything wrong or if there is more being done behind the scenes that have nothing to do with me. Either way, I’m getting frustrated and my productivity in my current position is slacking as a result.

I work on a small 4 person remote team- 2 peers and our manager. My 2 peers were recently hired and started in February this year. I actually trained them since I have held that position (Manager).

It slipped in a meeting today that everyone but me is included in going. More in comments.
