Brand new to consulting and honestly don’t know a lot about hierarchy or politics so don’t come for me for asking this lol but why do people always make jokes about being partner and how life is so amazing in that position? What’s the deal?

Partners are easy targets, but it’s actually not that amazing - most work constantly, are under a tremendous amount of revenue pressure and it’s incredibly political. There’s a reason why they are compensated well. Recommendation - treat everyone, regardless of level with respect and you’ll do great! Welcome to consulting!

Would it be 1) global head of L&E law at a big company, having to always be under the global GC, or 2) just collect enough experience to take the GC route?
