Lateral to MBB or Southeast Asia Big Tech (Sea, Grab, Gojek) in growth? Coming from a T2 firm.

Comp is within 5-10% in all cases, but in latter case there's RSUs vested over a few years.

After COVID I've realized my gut isn't in consulting for the long term, however the tech work has sparked a lot of joy just from interviewing. Thoughts?

Do tech companies like FAANG hire strategy consultants? Starting at an MBB/T2 next year and curious if tech companies leverage consultants as much as other industries.
