Are the people in strategy firms over rated? No. Most of them have had high GPA and extensive extra curriculars in college, gaining them the top percentile of their class.
Is the work that they do over rated? Yes. The direct impact you make in consulting is much less than the industry generally.

A1 higher GPA = better at memorizing and regurgitation of facts. Not someone I want on my strategy team. I value people who think for themselves which the education system teaches the opposite of. I would not eliminate a candidate for a high GPA but I prefer ones who have demonstrated the sensibility to recognize the limits of the schools and charted their own course, learned to think outside that system and comes up with non linear ideas.
School is for putting square pegs in square holes, strategy is about inventing new shapes no one else has thought about.
Maybe that’s why strat teams are deficient. They hire a bunch of high GPAs who think they know everything. I want someone who has the self awareness they know very little and have a curiosity to push the limits.

It’s hard and a lot of work, but I find it intellectually stimulating and professionally rewarding. Doesn’t have to be everyone’s cup of tea, but in the silly world of consulting, I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else
This is my perspective!
So are most high-paying jobs

True
Yes.

Ooohh. Tell us more
Impact-wise? Probably tbh. Interest-wise? Not at all. Compensations-wise? Still arguably underrated.
Everyone says strategy is overrated, but nobody says what area is better
Honestly, any type labor is overrated lol

Haha what did you expect?
“Overrated” is subjective. Why not just say consulting in general is overrated because by some standards all of it is. But the only standard that matters is ‘would people pay for this?’ and the answer is overwhelmingly yes. Don’t bite the hand that feeds.
Very good way to “break down” the problem. No wonder why you are a consultant. Glad to be in the same firm as you ACN1 ;)
