Pro
It’s a fairly risk averse career where within 6-8 years after B-school , one can make seven figures each year. And seven figures puts you way above upper middle class.
Plus you get to actually work with smart, and generally nice people, while solving decently cool problems.
PS: Speaking from MBB perspective here.
Chief
I like scamming big corporations.
I just want my mom to be proud of me
Pro
then you should have been a doctor or lawyer
I appreciate the money I make in consulting that helps me save, invest, splurge, donate, fund my passion projects.
The work itself is alright, I don’t mind it.
Why should I not “consult”?
What does “God’s chosen profession” mean?
Pro
i feel like there’s been a mistranslation. i mean, unless the education for consultancy includes a course on the shulchan aruch 🙃
Conversation Starter
I did a PhD, got no decent job offers in academia, and settled for public accounting because I needed a job. I think my job is stupid and pointless but I get paid and I can try to be a good manager to my staff and I guess that is rewarding.
Rising Star
I really like my coworkers. Have a lot of autonomy in the work. Can afford a fun life outside of work. Love to travel.
Pro
It’s pretty easy and the money’s great. Why would you do anything else?
I came in thinking this is a good way to be hired by companies I actually was interested in. However, I like it too much so far and now I don’t want to go anywhere else 🤷♀️
