Do you enjoy consulting? I thought it would give me more schedule flexibility and free time but it's actually more time-consuming than when I worked in-house for corporate.

I personally do, but it took me a couple years asking myself that question and determining what was important for me.

I have always been drawn to hospitality and enjoy the client serving aspect (even though clients can simultaneously drive me crazy). I like the challenges, fast-pace and creative solutioning (even though it stresses me out).

a little oversimplified, but have to figure out if the pros outweigh the cons for you in how you would value considerations like this!

So my VP at my previous company felt bad and refused to speak to me or attend my farewell after my resignation. His reason was that I somehow betrayed his trust as he had promoted me just last year (after keeping the position open for 4 months and letting me take additional work load after the previous SM left!). Does this make any sense? I mean where does this sense of entitlement or ownership over the employees come from? No wonder the company in question is kind of facing a literal exodus!

Anyone in the KPMG Lighthouse practice that would be willing to take a look at my husband’s resume and put in a referral? He’s interested in the Associate, Data Scientist position.

Do any of the top consulting firms have analytics roles (preferably not super technical) that don’t require weekly travel?

Partner: Let’s take the data in the spreadsheet and put it in PowerBI so we can cut it up.

Me: What? It’s already cut up in the spreadsheet. I don’t get it.

Also me: Yeah! Analytics!
