Looking to exit consulting with my key desire being work life balance. I'm going for Business Analyst roles and want to check I'm not likely to be jumping into a similar environment? (aware some of it will be dependent on company but in general do BAs have good WLB?)

Like you said, depends on the company but in general BAs come into play when a new project/product is being built/rolled out or an existing one is being modified. So the role entails requirements gathering, a ton of meetings/workshops, a lot of coordination. Can get tough in more intense projects/industries (consulting) but by and large decent-ish (40 hours) in non-consulting

I'm a brand new attorney (passed the Feb 2021 bar) who started an in-house counsel position a few months ago (where my focus is negotiating agreements for the sale of my company's software). I was a contracts manager on an in-house team for 4 years prior, which is why I was able to go straight in-house. I'm entirely skipping out on firm life, which feels both good and bad. Is there anything I should think about getting experience in? How should I go about making sure I am seeing enough things?
