I know someone who did this by requesting a temporary transfer to their firm's London office bc their spouse was getting transferred to the UK for their job for 1 yr. They worked mainly with their old teams in NY which was tough from a time zone perspective but overall it worked out well and they had an amazing time traveling around Europe on weekends.

I’ve been approached my by company that one of our large clients (who im currently project managing for) is looking for a consultant of sorts, and if they hire us, I’d be the first person asked to take on this consultant role. This isn’t something my company typically offers and would greatly change the scope of my role. Has anyone ever taken on a role like this? If so, were you able to negotiate a percentage of the consulting fee? Or was it a bump in salary during the project?
