Why would you go to law school to return to consulting?

like

Go to a top law school and work for a firm. More money and prestige. You don't want to come back to consulting with a top JD. Doesn't make sense

I am in TAS and often work with the lawyers in transaction tax. Some of them are only staff even when they come back from law school (but I assume paid on a very different scale than other staff) so you might want to ask around for these details if you want a JD to do M&A consulting. I'd suggest just getting a decent MBA like normal though

Graduated in May from a mid tier law school (attended for specific program), 3 years experience prior to law school, hired as a senior in a mid sized city for 100k +bonus. JDs definitely can have a good perspective in consulting, particularly in risk

I know many JDs that are in consulting. Many focus on M&A

Know someone who left EY after 3 years. Came back still took another 4 years to become manager.

Hello, I am a junior business administrator working in advisory operations. I have been with the company for 6 months, and was employed along with 2 other colleagues. I have picked the job up really fast and am even doing some “extra curricula’s” I really love my job. However I have recently found out I am being paid the same as an apprentice on my team, I usually do at 3 x the work he does whilst also doing my Cert CII. It has really disheartened me and I feel I should be earning more money
