Lower hurdle to get in. Lower pay...less thinking and more crappy work...

Implementation people generally come from industry (and often military). They work with clients to get stuff done instead of just making decks. Not an easy job but in my experience they tend to be more normal than standard McK folk. No idea about pay difference.

I became a mom and four months down, head of new business (guy) in my company and the HR (lady) interviewed me for an exec leadership role. Obviously I was excited for the interview but…. the interview went well with the guy and I felt the role was made for me. However, the lady kept bringing back the topic that ‘I am a mom and need to focus on my family’ again and again and again. Honestly it was unnerving. The feedback I received from HR (lady) was we felt you won’t be able <cont. in comments>
