I made a what I now see as a bad career move to take a leadership role and get a big bump. I’ve only been gone 4 months and miss Deloitte so bad. Do you think it’s too early / embarrassing to try to boomerang?

Not too early. The grass isn’t greener on the other side for everyone. I boomeranged after 18months but only took that long cos I was really trying hard to stick it out.

What were your main reasons for returning?

Nah.

Won't second guess why you did it - but hoping it was lots and lots of money plus a good title bump

Definately not too early to reach back to your network about potential return

I am one of the mindset, why return to a company that you left. What makes you desire to return to Deloitte? Sure you have spent a decade so your friends are at Deloitte but money isn't the only reason you left. People that return as a boomerang are not as well respected as those that have stuck it out and didn't jump for one reason or another. Takes a solid good three to five years to create a based network at any organization. Deloitte just announced a restructuring globally, so it'll be lots of changes over the course of the next year. Hoping to be completed by June 2025. They will also just announced a downsizing

Mind sharing why you feel that way? Is it because of the mess you have to clean up?

No, I was being coy, it’s the company in my title. I don’t know what Genpact is, but my takeaway - just avoid these low tier firms, like just DONT DO IT. I got a 60% pay bump and regret every second of it. Life is too short and there’s too many good companies out there.

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
