Are Transformation roles in industry worth it?

I have about 5 yrs of experience (1.5 YOE in consulting, Senior Consultant level) and I’m thinking of leaving consulting for a permanent role in industry doing internal transformation. I feel like I’m underpaid and the promotions are super slow and unlikely due to Covid.

Could anyone please help provide any thoughts on the pros and cons of doing internal transformation projects in industry? How do different industries compare? Thanks for sharing!

Make sure it’s actual transformation and not disguised PMO. I exited into an internal transformation role and it’s like 90% PMO, 10% transformation. Actively trying to get out.

Damn, hope you manage to get out and leave PMO behind 🙌🏻
