I have definitely struggled working on the end user side vs. consulting in ways I didn't expect. I have to spend a lot of time getting buy-in from people who don't care for stuff that is ultimately for them, and then something happens and it's suddenly an emergency. And working to get design consensus from other tech teams who are empire building and want to poach projects for "their thing". But the most constant, users escalating bugs that only impact them to a VP level, who then starts bugging our VP constantly and going higher if they don't jump to solve.
Part of this is our uniquely bad culture. But I do miss the simplicity of plugging in to a project with a SOW where the stakeholders are clear, and they've cleared the deck to work with you to accelerate progress because it's strategically important at a much higher level of the organization.
