What things are you excited to leave behind? How do you know those won’t carry over to industry? Genuinely curious.
- Travel (none in this role)
- Super hierarchical culture (going to a startup where the hierarchy is super flat, and there’s a real opportunity to quickly move up if you can do the job well)
- Rigid compensation timelines (I already negotiated into my offer letter an off-cycle review with a specific salary bump if I perform well)
The people - (Consulting seems to attract a specific type of insecure overachiever where as startups seem to attract different personality types)
- The obsession with prestige (sure, we’ll be chasing valuation, but our industry is obsessed with “MBB”, “Status” etc...)
Congrats! Where are you headed to?
