Depends on your goals. If it’s to work on bigger projects and gain experience doing something different than what you’ve been doing then yes. Most likely you’ll be doing less hands on technical work than you’re used to. On the flip side you may gain more exposure to strategy and type gigs and working with some really smart peeps. This could lead you to a much higher salary in 1-3 years. Consulting is what you make of it. Don’t get into it for the money or you might hate it.
Go into it assuming 50-60 hr weeks and most likely 80% travel (if things ever get back to normal). Then just be pleasantly surprised if you don’t.
Personally, I really enjoy consulting. I like the autonomy, learning different things and working with a bunch of different clients and their environments.
Very helpful. Thanks for your reply!!
Yeah if they like 9-5 then it would be a risk joining. I’m almost always working past 6pm but are done pretty early on Fridays. It also depends on team/service line/engagement and client
