Serious question...why do consulting at all if you dislike the stress and would rather have a chill job than a high paying one? Seems like you wouldn't necessarily need consulting to get something like that, so why bother? Or am I oversimplifying this...

Lol ya what UW1 said. It’s not rocket science.
I liked it when I joined and I’ve gained a lot from it. However I don’t want to do it long term. Simple.
