Just have to say this. I broke myself in the last month (my head, not my bank). Outlook has done 180 degree. Attitude is maintaining barely. Considering getting out of consulting and into industry. What are good companies that do digital transformation / software creation that don't require a move to Cali or Washington or anywhere at all?

My only issue is with the TC. Hard to beat $170,000 in industry without being in the bay, Seattle, or some other hub of stench and population.

That’s what I thought, but here I am around 1 year post-consulting and my TC is $330k.

Do you really need to “beat” your current comp? Sounds like staying where you are isn’t really an option

And I just re-read what you wrote and what I wrote. I didn't mean I want more money, I mean it's good money and it's hard to get that in my state. I'd take less money. Just not lots less.
