This is the correct answer

I’ve heard low low low %. Consulting is all about formalized structures of problem solving, not creativity

I know one. Went to corp strat at Netflix

We have a lot of people who exit to Netflix, but other than Netflix I’ve had friends go to AT&T’s media division, Disney and the Discover channel. I think all the big companies will have strategy functions

Hi fishes, what are the chances of Pwc AC bangalore rescinding an offer given the current market condition?

Questions about job hopping-
My average tenure at a company is ~1.5 years (with ~11 YOE), but each jump I've made has yielded progressive/tangible career growth.

I'm concerned after my most recent jump (went from a product director to a head of product position at a different, smaller company after only a year) that I've kind of poisoned future career prospects at larger companies.

Any insights on whether this type of job hopping is a complete deal breaker for potential HMs?
