Should I move from Tech to Consulting?
Are there any perks?
I am so demotivated with all the cons I see.

I loved consulting because of the amount of clients and different problems to solve but it ultimately felt good to settle down.

What kind of cons?

Poor WLB, Less Pay, Cannot move back to tech industry!

Perks are ability to work on a wide variety of projects and lots of travel (not a perk for everyone). Why are you considering it if all you see are cons?

What draws you to it? Consulting isn't my favorite for sure.

Following. I think the question revolves around whether the work is interesting / stimulating in helping clients solve their biggest challenges, and how much of that is marketing/brand perception vs reality?

As well as the opportunities for development / career acceleration
