Moved from Strategy consulting (CDD focus) to a PE Turnaround fund. While I loved the work, the culture didn’t align with me, and I quit. I know it sounds crazy in the current climate, but it was better than staying. What are exit routes other than: different PE, Corp Dev, Strategy manager, Chief of Staff roles?

Any reason why your excluding the 4 most obvious paths? I would say those are your set of options (and maybe add return to consulting as a 5th)

Looking for advice... 5 months ago I went from Higher Education (HE) Law Firm. I was so excited to move on and was offered about $16K more in my salary.

Today I find myself not excited about my current job and since the firm is much smaller than my last job in HE I feel like there is less growth opportunities. Every day I want to message my old manager about coming back but my wife doesn't think I should primarily because of the stress I went through. Tbh I miss the stress and workload (cont.)
