^correct, but this question is about financial compensation, not quality of life.

Our firm will never compensate non-client facing resources the same way they compensate revenue-generating client-facing resources. If you want to make advisory money, then you need to join advisory.

IFS sucks.

^True but your life/work balance and 100% remote flexibility will be so nice.

I used to be client facing and was burnt out. I work more overtime now than I ever did in client service.

I feel like I was straight up lied to during the interview process. “lots of opportunities to hit quota”. I’m sitting here with only one demo two months after joining the company. it looks like our team has only two people doing demos, and demos are only happening once every two weeks. At this rate, I don’t think I’ll be even close to hitting OTE. Are there any other companies hiring right now? I’ll have a discussion about my concerns with my manager soon, but there’s too many red flags here.

Discussion post: I feel almost all consulting firms are the same. Mbb, big 4 etc. if you are paid enough there is probably less wlb. If there is good wlb there is not much money.
