The friends I've made along the way
Let’s rephrase, the network I have established over the last few years.
I’ve met some incredibly smart people along the way and learned a lot from them.
I went to a bad State school but worked my way out of some terrible jobs (my first job interview was to be a CareerBuilder cold caller… I didn’t get the job…) to be around some really really interesting people.
Rad vacations using points and miles
Structured thinking
Hard yes
Edit: obviously there are lots of people outside of consulting who think in a structured way, but consulting really develops that skill set in a way that working in industry does not.

How much I’ve learned in many different areas, along with the great colleagues and leaders whom I’ve met and from whom I learned so much.
Thanks! Same for me too. Can you share your top learnings that stay with you along the way?
Grateful that company recruiters are more open to talking with me or sharing new opportunities because of my current employer’s brand.
Still annoyed at how elitist society is.
Can’t deny. People look at where you work and instantly think you are good/bad. Positive bias for us I guess
Getting my rear end kicked often enough to push me to become better.
