There is lot of politics in industry. If you are a Dev, then to rise in ranks, you have to understand domain and how your company conducts business to get growth. Most successful people I know in industry know domain as well as tech.

Stay in consulting

Ultimately I may. But I'm thinking of pivoting over to faang for a bit (still Salesforce) just for the name on my resume. Also want unlimited PTO. It seems only higher ups in consulting get that. I'd like to pivot over back to consulting once I can bargain for what I want

So I work as an assistant manager at a restaurant for the past 9 months. I've worked in restaurants for the past 6 years science I was 16. Now I'm 22. I went to a trade school for media and film.

I’m an MS Management Student graduating in June 2023. I applied to over 40 positions within the Big 4/MBB and even with extensive networking, I haven’t heard back from any really. I have an offer from a pretty well-known but less prestigious Consulting Firm, but I’m wondering what my chances even are of going Big 4/MBB if I’m not a campus hire. Will they even consider me for an experienced hire a year or two down the road if they showed no interest this time? Any advice welcome!
