I know several very good healthcare consultants that were laids off from IBM along with thousands of others GBS practitioners within the last year.
Net: I would not be looking to start a consulting career with IBM.
..managerial consultant role. Not sure if I should start a career with an external consulting firm (b/c of training, exposure, etc) also would I be putting myself in a box starting with an internal consulting firm like KP so early on my career?
As an IBMer, I have had a great career here so far, but we had massive layoffs this year, and although mood is low here, it is getting better. New consultants here (right out of college) have a mixed experience here. Some have a great time and embrace the opportunities, others feels they don’t get the opportunities, so it is tough for them
That being said - there are some great opportunities here and you can go far with the right amount of effort
Go to a consulting firm to build up your core consulting skills then go into industry. As a side note, I know people who have worked at KP (full time and on projects) and they did not enjoy their experience or client counterparts...
