Is making a switch from consulting firm to a tech firm in 1 year a bad move?
Does it look bad on a resume?
FYI my previous switch was within a year,

I do not like the long hours and quality of work. It is very manual in nature.

Trying for companies like apple, amazon, google etc.

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?

Do any of the top consulting firms have analytics roles (preferably not super technical) that don’t require weekly travel?

Coming to the realization that consulting is not for me (tech person) feeling angry that salaries at D will never be on pair with FANG and that leadership is not tech focused. For example you could be a soul contributor at fang making 240k and people at Deloitte wait 10+ years to earn that as Senior Managers because they need to climb the corporate ladder. It seems super clear cut to me now, if you want to make money in tech don’t join consulting firms. Am I wrong?
