Hi all, I have a slightly different ask. I have 5 YOE as IT BA. Does shifting from IT BA/Product to Management Consulting common? I have ONLY heard the other way round😂
The problem is I'm heading towards Lead BA or Product Mgmt roles which are more on management side and I want to continue being an IC for a couple more years. There's obv an intersection of skill sets across the 2 worksteams. Can any shifters or mgmt consultants suggest if that is a good switch now?

It's very common

Why do you think Mgmt consulting is an IC path.
It devolves into PPL mgmt at Mgr levels and also add a touch of sales to it

Even if EY matches my salary, and promote me to Manager, I will be an EY Manager with a Deloitte SC salary, and probably won't be able to go to D in the future. What do you think? I have built up a good relationship with my Partner and SMs at EY though.

Looking for tips from seniors. I'm at A1 level at a litigation firm, stepping out of the deer-in-headlights phase.

I often find myself in a more assistive role, either by my choice or the Partners'.
How can I accelerate my progress? What are Partners' and Seniors' expectations from year one associates?
