I’ve got audit, M&A deal experience and now CFO consulting experience but I’m not a fan of finance/accounting anymore. What do I do? Is tech consulting remotely possible for me? Any other consulting industries that pay 130-150k for Senior Consultants that aren’t finance and accounting related that would take me? Open to anything! I’ve discussed with Gartner and Accenture a little bit curious what’s out there. Looking for better work life balance and non accounting roles. Thanks!

In the same position. Have audit and accounting advisory experience and some transactions. I’m sick of accounting. I don’t care if it’s public or industry, I just want out.

Yep. I was briefly looking at project management possibilities and if I have to start in that field I’m losing 60k

Been thinking about completely pivoting to programming

I’ve thought about this but I bet it would be similarly bad for work life balance. Maybe not. I also don’t know where to start. I’ve seen people do the bootcamps but feel like you need to get lucky in addition to bootcamp
