Working in Tier 2 consulting PMO role. Early in career. Advice on if it’s worth staying a few more years. Thoughts on pivoting into something totally different like Investor Relations at a PE firm. Or tech startup. Or stick out consulting as a career.

It sounds like you’re young so I’d say follow what interests you. If you hate your job, it’s worth trying something else. But don’t quit until you have something else secured and the ink is dry on the offer.

On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the most, how pissed would you be if you were a supervisor and you had a new direct report on your team with a higher salary than you? The years of experience are the same, but you have 3 designations (they have 0), you have 3 licenses (they have just 2), they have little to no experience with technical complex claims (you have hundreds), and you have 3 years in management (they have 0).

I am in a tech IC position. One of friends switched to FAANG by converting the profile to consultant profile. The friend who might have less tech knowledge than me is now in FAANG and earning more. If the end goal would be that the friend might one day be a product manager and me an engineering manager taking instructions from the same friend, isn't consultant profile an easier path to growth. I had been practising DSA for years and the competition is only ever growing.
