Hah! “Exit option” for a consultant level who "can’t keep doing the same... shit much longer.” What are we talking about here? Three years out of school? You’ve seen nothing. Industry is worse. You will run into the same issue wherever you go—might not be the same shit but it’ll be some kind of shit

sounds like you haven’t found what you’re looking for; industry is horrible if you end up not liking the people you work with, at least with projects based work, you get to walk away. Be honest with yourself and why you want to leave. The plug and play life is even worse on the other side
