Can anyone help me evaluate whether I should take an exit opportunity. Currently in big 4 (fsrm) and have the opportunity to join a f250 payments firms internal strategy division. They report directly to the c-suite and said they mainly focus on strategy or M&A and don’t do implementation. The team seems really nice but I’m just worried about leaving consulting and leaving the accelerated progression. Would love some insights as I’m fairly lost on what to decide. Thanks!

You are a staff. You will not be stunted at all. You can even boomerang after a year and a half as manager and move even faster

Got it thanks! Yeah I’m just new to this whole corporate world thing and just wanted to know if it was a good move and if I was closing any doors forever. Thanks!
