I knew an analyst who scheduled a meeting with their SM and M and told them she was rolling off. And she had done them a favor by staying longer than 6 months. Needless to say she doesn't work in consulting anymore ... So maybe just be careful

...but if you don't care about buying bridges you can always just walk out the door. The only thing a company has on you is pay/benefits and maybe your reputation. If you are headed to another field, even the reputation may not work.

Maybe the more important question is how long is your role for. If it's just a couple more months then ride it out we all get out in crappy situations. If it's a year then maybe start discussing with your CC about needing different opportunities for growth

I went through a pretty rigorous interview process for a marketing project manager but ultimately wasn't given job.

How do I again the experience if I'm limited by the type of work we do?

Negotiating a settlement. I’m at $10k, opposing counsel is at $20k. My client won’t go higher than $15k. OC has come down to 17.5k and says his client won’t budge from that. Do I offer 12.5k so we can hopefully meet in the middle at 15k? Is that how the settlement game is played? Seems dumb we can’t just say let’s meet in the middle now and be done with this. (I’m a first year, first time negotiating a settlement on my own and I don’t want to screw this up!)
