I came into Amazon as a product manager and after two years became product tech, as organizationaly it made sense but I was already doing the job (necessity).
I find there are always opportunities if you are willing to fill gaps and pick up slack, especially in resource constrained environments.
I started in tech consulting and did 2 years there, industry for 4 years where I did tech, ops and M&A, then did 2 years focused on operations/IT, and given staffing and previous experience I got staffed on a project in M&A.
The M&A / strategy arm wanted to keep me on and so I moved over once I hit senior manager. I did 3 years doing large scale programs before going into a product role at Amazon.
I found it harder to navigate in consulting given the useless obsession with MBA’s, many of whom struggled to read a 10k.

Of course - appreciate you asking. My reasoning is nothing special though, just classic burnout from public and looking for better WLB and pay. I really don't care what job it is as long as it's something I can do well at, pays decent, and let me have a life after 5/6.
