Left Consulting and starting new job back in Industry (was an external hire from Industry). I thought I could 'hang' longer in Consulting but the WLB was too much to handle.

Peace out Consulting ✌️

How long did you stay?

Made it a little over 2 years 😂

I feel you. I want to leave consulting for WLB, but I’m also afraid of leaving all the “opportunity” behind, such as working on so many different things and switching around. But I also miss spending time with my family and don’t feel very healthy.

Gotta find your balance. Wasn't worth 60+ hours for me!

Right now in talks for a sustainability director role that would be closer to $160k base / $20k bonus. (More in comments)
