What kind of exit opportunities are good for an ERP Functional Consultant looking to move into industry ...preferably into the Bay Area ...how can the ERP experience be best leveraged? Is it recommended to become technical and learn a bit of Data Science?

I switched to become a SWE. ERP is a complex software, implementing it taught me a lot about software architecture. I think this is a big advantage I have over other entry - mid level SWEs.
I did have to teach myself to code though...

Depends on your background and level. I've seen people transition to ERP manager (day to day management of ERP), transformation manager (PM for implementation on client side), BA, or IT manager (overall it, not just erp). I've also seen people go directly into a functional role (e.g. Someone who does implementation for the finance modules becomes a FP&A or finance manager)

Why is it depressing? I mean if there's something different you want to do, you can likely switch internally at your firm to build experience and then jump to industry from there. Or just switch directly to industry at a lower level

One of my friends works as a Director in Nagarro. She has been there for 7 years and has a CTC of 42 with total yoe 17. Per current trend this is low even though she is a constant top performer. She says that even though delivery people play a pivotal role, they are not paid well. In her team, she sees technical people earning 45-50 at 10-11 yoe. So the factor is 2.5 for delivery vs 4.5 to 5 for technical roles. Per her, this is quite common in Nagarro & she is not an outlier. ctd in comments
