Hi, I'm extremely confused about consulting. Working since 6 months, but don't know if I like KPMG or just consulting in general. Any suggestions anyone? Folks working at Deloitte how's your work environment for Consulting/Strategy consulting? Any tips for newbies? Pls help!

Aree yaar koi bata bhi do

6 months is not enough time bro. Give it a year at least

Consulting is difficult and toxic where ppl are more and have limited space for growth. That's why not all make it to a partner. It's tiring mentally. So upto you how you want to live your life. It is rewarding but comes at the cost of work life balance. Choose basis what you want not what ppl consider fancy. I too exited out of consulting since I couldn't take the skew anymore and could take the money hit for mental peace.
