Assuming you don’t hate consulting life, you have an mba, but don’t see yourself sticking around long enough to make partner, what is the best level to exit at

Focus less on level to exit and more on the outgoing opportunity itself. Great exit opportunities can come at any level, try not to pass up a company/opportunity you love due to being too focused on exit level (eg Manager) as it may not come back when you get to that magical next level.

Once you had enough. I'm an SC and Idk if I'll stick around for M or leave right after

Manager - unless something great comes along. Just my 2 cents but you’ve got the consulting skills (you’ll have those after a few years of consulting regardless of level) AND you’ve proved you can operate independently and manage a team which is a couple of extra boxes checked.

OMG following!

I’d say manager or experienced manager, for sure. Having 6-10 years under your belt will get you a lateral Sr. Manager role in industry and you’ll get a nice pay bump

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
