But what comes after corp strategy work?

I worked in Corp strategy before deloitte. You typically roll off into leadership position when done stint in strategy.

Most people either climb through the ranks, but it's a slow upward movement with a ceiling after manager level - people have to quit or move in order for you to get promoted. Alternatively people move laterally. CStratO seems to be the ceiling, most CEOs seem to come from the CFO/COO/CMO route

If you opt to share the feedback with the manager, would the manager have a legal case against the company or former employee?
