Do any of us actually love consulting or do we do it for the benefits (ie money, travel perks, exit opportunities)?

I’m here for the benefits but if I hated it then I’d leave. It’s just a job with some nice perks.

If I weren’t paid well, I wouldn’t be here. But, hour for hour (overtime not included), I enjoy the variability much more than industry.

I like consulting, could never go back to industry and the travel perks help especially on bad days

Love it. I’m an undergrad hire and the perks/benefits didn’t really matter much to me - it’s the job itself and the people who have made the good days great and the awful days bearable.

Been doing this for 6 years after military and industry. Love it. Never going back.

I don’t believe anyone who says they love any job unless they’d do it for free.

I only enjoy the consulting side of things during sales cycles. Once we sell, i am ready to 🤯. Makes me wonder if i should get into a full time sales role ...

Is anyone else who works in SPED dealing with students who are coming to school sneezing + coughing, cannot consistently keep masks on, and don’t understand social distancing? I absolutely used to love what I do but I’m feeling extremely anxious about guidelines not being followed within these groups. I am high risk and so are my family members. I don’t know what else to do and it might be time for me to go, but I would miss my students so much. I’m feeling stuck! Please tell me I’m not alone?

I went to my GE science teachers and asked for a comprehensive list of what is taught in biology in our GE classes. My goal is to take the main ideas and bring the concepts down to the level of my students to keep them moving at a similar rate. I was told they do not feel they can share that with me because we do not have our class assignments for next year yet.

A CD of my old agency doesn’t make cool stuff (he’s a ‘keeping shitty clients happy with mediocre work’ guy) but behaves on social media like he’s the man. He takes credit for the agency’s best work, or at least makes it look like he contributed.

No one in his team is happy and a lot of people burn out, but on social, he talks about work life balance as if he is one of the good guys.

It bothers me. He’s presenting himself as a great guy on social while reality is something else. 😡
