Hey. It vastly depends on the business unit (is it KT? Practice Area Management?), location, and seniority. But generally you can expect way more ‘reasonable’ hours, little travel v consulting, and also less pay. If you are transitioning for a Consulting role at MCK, maintaining your income is probably your best case scenario (again, I am generalizing), and realistically you may see a lower income (including base & bonus).

GSB is huge and some roles are super challenging and interesting, providing the chance to REALLY deep dive in topics that interest you. Other roles are not that challenging, but WLB makes them sexier.

In the end it’s a balance you have to make in terms of your personal situation and future career. Best of luck dude!

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
