I’ve worked in consulting for 4 years and am considering transferring internally to a Resource Management role. Does anyone have any insights on what the role is like in terms of day-to-day stress and hours? Mainly just trying to move into something more sustainable and get away from the long consulting hours and constant pressure — would appreciate any perspective! 🙏

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
