Coming onto a projected as a senior consultant overseeing one consultant, with another consultant from another workstream acting as the Lead which I'm supposed to report to. Is this normal?

Wear the hat you've been assigned. Get it done and become their go-to. Deal with him/her directly and don't go around (unless you've let them know.) Think team. At ACN they would not have input on your performance (at least not directly.) A manager working for another same level I know asked for direct mentoring time with the tower lead (up one level) on regular basis.

Finally going to tell my bosses I am leaving to work with another office at our company! I’ve wanted out for so long! But now I don’t know what to say… I want to tell them off but probably shouldn’t. If you’re moving within the same company do you still give a 2 week notice? Do you just verbally tell them?
