Bucket EVERYTHING and make the interviewer know your train of thought and how you’re approaching the problem

Sometimes the process is better than the outcome, I passed my case interview at a different T2 firm without answering the question in a way they expected but because they understood where I came from and was concise on how I communicated my thoughts they understood my perspective and why I chose my answer

What do you do when you feel the goalpost has been/is being moved re: billable requirements? Like there's a spoken vs unspoken? I chose this job based on billables vs salary and what I'm being told I'm expected to do now is 20-30% (at least) > than what was initially agreed upon. Given my other life responsibilities, this is creating a huge strain & I feel like this is slowly getting harder & harder on my spouse & kids. I'm grateful to have lots of good work but not sure how to course correct.

I'm currently in a consulting manager role internal to a well regarded pharma company. However, i have been contacted about a role at IQVIA for a new pure strategy internal group that they are standing up. It would be a 55% salary boost with director title and completely remote. Should I consider it? The salary increase and location flexibility are alluring.
