Is Splunk a valuable skill to have when looking for exit opps? I’m at the analyst level trying to move from tech into strategy or management consulting.

If you are looking to move away from Tech, picking up additional tech skills (splunk, etc.) should generally not be top priority.

In 5 years of management consulting I have never heard someone use the word Splunk in a sentence, based on that alone I would de-prioritise this skill

Strategy consulting is totally different than tech consulting. Most strategy projects might have tech incorporated into it, but rarely will the projects require deep knowledge of vendor specifics.

You’ll need to leave and get an MBA. Or start seriously networking into strategy and be prepared to hear no. That is not an easy move to make. They are very exclusionary toward the rest of the client and market tracks.

No

Unless splunk the company is your client
