Pre-covid I was doing admin work, and recently moved to a consulting firm. Nobody knows what the new normal is going to be yet, but pre covid-19 were SF consultants traveling at the same rate as other consulting practices? I'm digging (and finding I am good at) implementations, but have kids/can't/won't do 80% travel. Hoping to hear I can stay in the consulting space and not be limited to slalom (no offense, they seem lively, but I like having options).

Anyone have any insight?

When you tell your manager you are unhappy and they are excited that you are putting your notice and don't try and make any changes b/c the new person/persons they are lining up will just cleanup and make it better.

Then, they get here and you are left to train them on everything you do and your manager keeps saying "I owe you an apology" because they didn't realize how taxing and mind wrecking most processes you handled were... welcome to corporate
