Hello. Anyone do general IT consulting on the side? Say I have a basic MBA, PMP and am a jack of all trades/master of none.

Basically good at SDLC, project management, ppt decks, ppl management, and excellent at communication.

Ok, just talked myself out of it 😅😅😅

There are loads who do, and depending on what you do, lots of people are looking - maybe set up a profile on Upwork?

I hear Upwork jobs are intercepted by folks from lower cost countries like India? We simply (US-based) can’t compete.

Does your contract allow you to do this on the side?

What was he doing exactly? Not trying to get ideas.
