Need advise, currently working in a specialized industry strategy consulting boutique, where majority of the work seems to be CDD n M&A focused. In talks with Monitor Deloitte for Director role, strategy & design but generalist role. My current setup while specialized is a very small firm where the partners have a top-down management style, while I have been culturally more accustomed to bigger consulting firms. Pay similar in both companies. Any advice?

Why are people so salty about monitor lmao, is it a meme to say this everytime someone brings up monitor. It exists in certain regions

What's your long term goal? Do you want to make partner? Do you want to join a strategy team in industry? Or a Corp dev team in industry?

Strategy - what internal initiative will have the best return?
Corp Dev - what external initiative (buying or selling a company) will have the best return?

I have been offered a position at a non-US B4 with a 2 year path to partner.

The KPIs seem achievable and I’ll be in charm school to help build support within that timeline. Most of me thinks a 2 year path under these circumstances realistic but my inner skeptic is jaded. Anything I might have missed?
