How are the exit opps from Booz? Is it only federal opps or have people pivoted to commercial/industry roles?

It's possible but more challenging than working for a less federally focused firm, of which you of course have numerous options

I’ve seen multiple folks go to Tier 2 commercial firms from the federal practice lately. Definitely rare and the people who are getting those jobs were top performers at Booz / came from top undergrad or Masters programs. More common is jumping to a Big 4 or boutique who does both government and commercial work and slowly transitioning.

Hi! Anybody knows of federal agencies hiring that are offering fulltime telework/remote?
I currently work for an agency based in DC and my boss is forcing us to come back into the office fulltime after we’ve been remote for nearly two years. Majority of my coworkers have already left for the private sector but I’d like to remain in the public.

Losing motivation and drive as time goes on , and I’m only 27 . Nothing I’m passionate about and money just seems like it’s ever enough ($160k total comp) . I was lucky enough to be making that much at McK while solving social problems within education , Econ dev , and public health

However , social good isn’t pleasing my soul neither is the income . I’ve switched jobs to healthcare where I’m impacting people’s physical and mental health . Still no passion / drive

I feel lost / bored :(
