Can anyone shed some light on your experience hoping firms? I signed a noncompete when I joined my current consulting practice and am a bit confused on what all that could and could not disqualify me from. Am I allowed to be an analytics consultant for a different consulting firm no problem? As long as it isn’t the same analytics platform? Just can’t start my own firm otherwise I’m good to go?

Any advice is super helpful!

Usually non-compete only refers to clients you've worked with in the last X months. You're allowed to work for a competitor.

It's also state dependent

Basically you just can’t work on the same projects for the same customers with a different firm. Different projects with the same clients would be ok at least that is how mine reads.

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate. That was 1.5 years ago and I am still in the limbo of juggling my own workload + doing assistant roles for my supervisors. I have also had no increase in pay, which is a huge deal for me. Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?

Coming to the realization that consulting is not for me (tech person) feeling angry that salaries at D will never be on pair with FANG and that leadership is not tech focused. For example you could be a soul contributor at fang making 240k and people at Deloitte wait 10+ years to earn that as Senior Managers because they need to climb the corporate ladder. It seems super clear cut to me now, if you want to make money in tech don’t join consulting firms. Am I wrong?
