Wasn’t a consultant specifically but worked for mbb. Making more money. Miss working with high caliber people. There are plenty here but fewer and farther between. Also miss being at a smaller more agile private company with more liberal expense budgets. I have to take my team out on my own dime sometimes but think it’s important for team building.

Went consulting to industry and now back to consulting (healthcare payer/provider). Was happy in consulting left to get deeper industry exp, got bored at the pace even when it was internal corp strat/internal consulting. I got salary bumps along the way but less than I’d have made in consulting. Back in consulting with a much bigger pay bump but also way more work and hours compared to industry
