All industries are slow. Tech is typically actually faster vs others given many companies grow much faster than GDP thus more opportunities. Vs. other companies you are waiting for people to retire for opportunities.

It’s just relative to consulting. If you want fast career growth, stay in consulting.

I've been exploring exit opportunities for a few months and still holding out for the right opportunity. However, I've had A LOT of recruiters reach out to me for positions that are way below my current salary. They do the whole "your background and expertise is exactly what we're looking for" then turn around and offer a salary range that is 20k below my current level. My resume clearly says I've got 10yrs experience and an MBA. I **don't think* I should be getting offers of 80k-100k
