Guys there’s this boot camp that I came across that trains people to get jobs in Top consulting firms and has a fee plan wherein you pay once you get placed. I just wanted to know if someone here has any experience with this ?

Don’t do it if you plan to have a baby. You only get 2 weeks off instead of standard 4-6 months
Traditional consulting isn’t for everyone, D1. I personally have no interest in traveling 80-100% of the time, so the other models (PDM and USDC) are very attractive to me.
Project delivery is working at client site without travel (read: you relocate to client location if not already in same area). Your employment is tied to the engagement and you’re given a certain amount of time to find another project or you’re outcounseled based on your employment agreement. There are pros and cons to all the models, so research before jumping in headlong.
USDC is a dying model. Everyone I know at USDC that is on a project is traveling at least 50% or more
PDM benefits are way off. No family leave, no tuition reimbursement, no pension. Its good for government retirees that arent looking to build business and are not looking for development. It basically an internal contractor. Pay shouldn’t be too far off what Traditional track folks make.
