I left a little over a year ago for a Corp Strat role at a F200 company. Zero regrets. I make more money, work 40-45 hours/week, am able to blow people away with my consulting skill set, and have plenty of time for family, friends, healthy eating, fitness, and hobbies. New job has exceeded my expectations (but they were really low to begin with). I like having to stick around and deal with execution of my strategic recommendations and learning about all the roadblocks and interdependencies that a company really has to work through to execute. I wasn’t actively looking to leave consulting, this company recruited me and made an attractive offer.
I went IT consulting >> industry >> Just returned to IT consulting and I HATED industry. It was so damn slow. I know it’s company based but it was terrible. At first it was cool because my 40 hours blew them out of the water and I literally did double the work of anyone around me and kind of felt like I was slacking, but I got tired of the excuses and crap of others for not delivering their part. I left consulting because I got stuck on an awful project traveling by myself for 6+ months and it did a number on me mentally. Took the first good salary offer back in my home town and tried to relax for two years. Just came back to consulting and I love the work but not loving the travel.
Do you expect to get unbiased answers here?
Went from FS industry > consulting > FS industry.
So far 4 months and so far so good. More comp, less hours, less politics, less BS work, no travel
Because who made a successful move to the industry won’t care enough to stay on FB and hear consultants whine everyday.
Sa1 no I don't think so. I see some Google people occasionally
Don't people usually update their LinkedIn when they leave and therefore lose access to this consulting bowl?
@EY1, less politics? Lol just wait a few more months
Lol @ey2 - in consulting you deal with 2x the politics (client politics and internal firm politics)
Industry - you only hav your firm’s own politics
I left to work for a HF doing research. Longer hrs but a lot more $. Overall no regrets; EY will always be there and have support from my old Partner and SM to boomerang back if I want to
No, I don’t regret it, wanted to get the chance to actually run a business vs. just telling someone how to do it. I can always go back into consulting.
You don’t though
I came from a data analytics role in industry 8 years ago. Love it on this side of the fence and would never go back to industry.
@M1: why wouldn’t there be unbiased answers?
Wait if you change your LinkedIn you lose access to Fb?!
