Depends on the position. Front office yes, back office probably not

The big banks have started trimming senior roles in back office/compliance lately and looking to automate a lot of the work. On the other hand, if you are a consultant for a bank, you are unlikely banking front office material either

I left biglaw after 3 years to a mid-size firm.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
