Does anyone know what L.E.K. Consulting is like for internal facing roles? Considering a chief of staff role and would like to understand if the culture for internal functions is as brutal as client facing?

There’s no way they’d take an external candidate for the chief of staff to the CEO role. I find that very unlikely.

Why not?

Chief of Staff is chill, which is usually staffed with a Consultant for a 1 year stint and highly coveted. The fact they’re hiring externally for it may mean they want that C back on casework lol

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach. I had a recent offer for a state government position in a talent acquisition role but I’d be taking a $25K pay cut. I am extremely over qualified for the position but it could possibly be a stepping stone and gives me the time to acquire SHRM certifications and possibly start taking classes to get my MBA. My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?
