Left my first job after just shy of two years because I was bored. Have been at my current job for about half a year and it’s a great resume builder but an absolute horror story (long hours, unreasonable clients, tons of weekend work that’s not worth the pay). If I left in a few months, at the 10 month mark, would that significantly hurt my chances of getting a strong exit opportunity? I can’t imagine staying here for the full year but I don’t want to blow my chances at leaving for a cool job

Hey all, first time poster here and still consider myself fairly new to consulting so please be kind.

Lastly, I’ve seen quite a big salary range for MBA hires. Anyone care to share the latest? TIA.
