Exit opportunities into industry?
Started my career in industry and have now done the last 5 years in consulting spread across T2 and Big 4 as a manager. Long term I’m not sure the consulting gravy train is for me. Keen to hear of anyone who’s looking to move out of consulting, or in the process of doing so and how they’re finding it. My background is a mixture of CX strategy, PO roles, and programme management/delivery lead.
