Always been narrower than non exit row seats. The exit door sometimes bulges in and there is a big gap between the window seat and the wall of the plane on an exit row. All those lost inches translate into narrower seats since you can't "eat" into the aisles

Does it make sense to jump from Strategy& to either LEK or ZS, if the ultimate goal is to end up in industry (Big Pharma)?

Do folks hiring in industry even know the differences between these firms to justify hopping from one to the other for an industry exit?
