Life science consulting in Asia, like Singapore and Hong Kong. Any insights on how big the market is? Would they value LS consulting exp in the US? Would love to transfer at some point.

Not sure about Singapore or HK but for Shanghai, knowledge of local market is almost a must, US experience is nice to have but won’t get you the job alone. HK also doesn’t seem to be a hub for LS consulting in my knowledge but Singapore is.

Can you speak a little more about the Shanghai market knowledge requirements? I’m interviewing at a few firms there at the moment and it seems there’s a pretty high mandarin requirement, though I haven’t heard much on local market experience requirements (though to be fair I’m pretty early on in the process)

Have a buddy working in Singapore as well as in HK consulting (not LS) and they work crazy hours and have an extremely hierarchical culture with. Very work hard and when tired as a zombie still have to play hard because your MD wants to (though he has had plenty of sleep)

Advice needed! I started at an ID firm only a few months ago after a long stint doing in-house litigation. I was referred to the firm by a very good friend who also still works there. A management position at my old in-house firm has now been offered to me. Higher salary obviously and no billables. I am seriously dreading talking to my new boss and telling my friend that I want to go back in-house. Has anyone dealt with something similar? I just feel so bad and don’t want to burn bridges
