I went from working in SC for a F500 to consulting about five years back. I was hired by a smaller firm that was willing to take a chance on a guy with no consulting experience, as a senior. Because of the size of the firm, my pay was comparable to what I was making. I found the hours to be 10-20% more (45-50).

Absolutely. I work in transformation now actually and feel my opportunities post-consult look great.

Pay should be in the $100-150k range. Hours in my experience go way up - 50-65 hours a week (big 4)

Unless you’re in Canada, which would make it $100-110K at a Big 4

DM me. EY is hiring in supply chain. Happy to refer. Hours are project dependent, I’ve been on 45-50 hour a week projects and 60-70 hour a week projects. I came from industry as well. Pay is dependent on city but $100-$150 is an accurate peanut butter range. Seniors are work horses but you’ll learn a lot. Good balance of getting in the details on projects and getting quality client facing experience.

Would you consider refering me? I am looking to get into new role also.

50ish hrs but varies A LOT by project, and 100k+ depending on which location and firm
Accenture is hiring in supply chain, PM me to refer you if you see any openings you’re interested in

Hello Folks,
Can you pls advise on which company to go for.
R-Systems : They are providing WFH + clarity on the project and team for which I’ll be working upon.
CTS : No clarity as of now, only thing I am aware is that I’m a part of full stack community.
HCL : Some clarity on the project but less package than other two.
R-Systems and CTS are giving same CTC.
YOE ~8
Skill set : . Net full stack + Angular + Azure

Thanks
