Working in industry for 6.5 years (was in consulting for 8 years before that (Accenture strategy and B4). Just received an offer for A S Dir. role (corporate transformation), +600k TC (and a 4.5 day week). Also in the process with a T2 consultancy which, if successful, likely to be around 300k TC. Should I move back to consultancy for better long term prospects or jump to the SD role? Welcome all thoughts.

600k TC vs 300k TC, and this is still a question? Time value of money is everything

It depends on your mid to long term goals, the industry role obviously pays better now, and has better WLB and will likely be fairly stagnant, the consultancy role will pay more in the long term and progression will be faster.

I'll take that role. What company OP?

If you want to chase partnership , got to consulting. Many don’t make partners. And it takes a few years as partner to get to 700-800 K plus. So I’m not sure what people here are smoking, but consulting “progression” to partnership is not quick and it’s a year/year grind as a salesperson.

What do you Think? Aka what does heart say?

To give a perspective. I'm half your experience and in risk, my comp is 165 plus bonus, so 300k seems lowball

T2 nah MBB Maybe

Im a RN and took on a new role working in Home Health.

If you know that life, I’m pretty much the main parent for our kids. I don’t want to work in the hospital/floor work anymore; nor do I believe the hrs are flexible enough.
