Yep. No pay cut but be prepared for slower promotion path. I’ve loved it. Feel free to message me if you’d like!

I heard that in Strategy paycut is inevitable. also considering switching to an internal role, some kind of marketing.

I did it and definitely took a pay cut, but have slowly been moving up. Definitely more flexibility and predictability (though still not always predictable and still much more than a 9-5), but less money than I would make in a consulting role and depending on the group, less respect. For me well worth it to get the positive tradeoffs while staying at a firm I love, but it's not all rosy.

Agree with these comments. As long as you are ok with the trade offs. I didn’t take a pay cut but haven’t had a raise in a long time, but I still get a bonus. I don’t really care if it is less prestigious since it works for my life but if that matters a lot to you, then think about it.

I switched from MC to an internal role. No pay cut, but progression is slower, though I did get promoted a couple years after I switched.

Men, why ghost women on dating apps even though you showed interest? I matched with a guy on Hinge and he asked me out. We were supposed to meet Thursday night, but I forgot that I had something for work, so suggested a different day. Not only did he not respond, but he also changed the pictures on his profile multiple times, making it obvious that he was on the app/saw my messages! He then unmatched me. Never met him, so obviously not the love of my life, but just genuinely curious.
