Don't switch unless you are very much inclined to Consulting

The market is so bad that if you can hold on to your existing job it’s a miracle.

Why would you want to do that , product companies are good , consulting has a really bad wlb

Currently a first year staff in Risk Advisory in a Mid-Tier Firm hoping to move to Big 4 for either Risk or Cyber. When would be the most appropriate time to make the change?

So would it be smarter to make the move now as a first year staff since I’ll be considered Experienced Hire anyway?
