Would any of you leave your corporate strategy gig at f500 (junior level) to go back to T2 management consulting? Probably would be a mix of implementation and regulatory projects

Probably not. There were reasons I left consulting for corporate in the first place, such as wlb, stress, travel, etc. Those reasons are unlikely to be materially better in whatever junior-ish role in mind at the moment. I'd rejoin if I got laid off from corporate in order to keep an income, but then I wouldn't want to stay long.

Opposite for me, consulting firm provided less stress and barely any travel. Corporate is more toxic plus politics and no room for upward growth

Hate to break it tonyou but every company has politics and it only gets worse the higher you climb.

I know that but the politics are out of my control as I’m so junior but I’m still being dragged into it. No one is looking out for us

If I finish my MBA with extra loan money, should I pay it back to reduce the principal? Or invest it into the market? From my perspective it seems like it makes more sense to invest since the market is likely to generate more than my current loan rate. Although having debt also provokes some anxiety.

For additional info: my loan is a private loan of ~100k at ~5.2%. I have no other debt.

Hi all,
I’m currently working for a small technical consulting start-up firm. I make good money, have great benefits, and they seem very happy with the work I’m doing, so I know I could move up quickly. However, tech consulting is definitely not my dream job. I want to get into data analytics, and I have an offer from a big company to do just that. I’ve only been at my current company for about 8 months, but I don’t ever see myself loving this job. How do I know when it’s time to make a change?
