Ex-consultant, now lead revenue at a small tech and considering a move either back to Consulting (ie director at Deloitte/Mck tech) or up to a large tech (ie account director at Aws/msft). I have interviews lined up for both and wondering if/how anyone has decided between the two recently ie job satisfaction, wlb, trajectory, pay etc. Advice appreciated!

Scrappy delivery and internal processes, monthly targets create transactional relationships with clients and miss the larger team and culture of consulting.

Have been in current role for 4+ years through a series C and it's a lot of fun wearing every hat, but want to settle into something with a longer-term mindset.
