Thinking about consulting post MBA but not sure a travel lifestyle will be sustainable with my family. I’ve heard Bain consultants travel less than consultants at other firms. Any truth to that?

Don’t do it - preMBA consultant on my way out. Consulting is not a good postMBA career especially with a family. MBB travel is regional so you’ll have a higher likelihood of being local or near local, but near local is still travel.

Bain may travel less given they do a lot of PE CDDs, which are 0 travel. The wlb on those cases is particularly rough, however. You can find this work at McK and BCG, but it represents a smaller % of revenue there than at Bain
