Thoughts about switching to an internal position? What are the differences?

Long term and maybe short term comp impacts. You're more vulnerable to being cut and have to justify yourself plus funding annually. Different type of politics to contend with as well. Great work life balance though.

I did. It's great. Certain roles, like Greenhouse and CAM, still have quite a bit of opportunity to be client facing without the same type of grind.

Thoughts on switching to CMT?

I know a lot of the leadership for that function. They are great people. Don't think you can go wrong, just have an exit plan.

The opportunity that is available would allow me to focus on the areas that I want to grow in the most. The pay seems like it will cap out a lot earlier, but couldn't I just transfer back to External once I developed the skills I wanted to or is that difficult to do? On the plus side, I can be remote 100% if I want to be.

What about bonuses, Amex card, paid certifications, training opps, being involved in recruiting? Do I have to give up all those things?

Are you going on loan from consulting or straight up transferring?

I would be transferring.
