Bain & Company Hey all, Is there any Management Consulting/Strategy Consulting role/firm or some Strategy Management role/firm that offers good work life balance and permanent work from home?
I know this sounds like an oxymoron, but I haven't lost hope yet

Just take implementation or pmo projects instead of strategy/due diligence. Much better wlb

Take a gig in MBB back office...50% chance that you will get a role with wlb
However it would be more of research and support rather than consulting.

Work life balance is not guaranteed in a back office role at MBB. Highly likely that the work will be monotonous though and you won't be learning anything new.

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid?

Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
