Would doing a year or two in restructuring and turnaround open up more jobs opportunities? End goal for me would be to get a higher position at a bank that pays well (six figs) or go finance department at a corp

Yes and no. Restructuring and turnaround is a actually very niche, its a specific skillset and pays well with constant travel. Will most likely take a pay cut to leave rx consulting unless it’s something like landing an investing role at a distressed PE fund.

Most experienced restructuring and turnaround consultants clear >$200-300k after bonus.

If your goal is a regular accounting/finance at a bank or corp working 9-5 you don’t need to go into RX. Note RX is not exactly transferable to a bank finance/accounting job unless you were doing RX engagements for SVB/failed banks.

Most who go into RX stay in RX for the pay and dealing with distressed companies and the evergrands of the world. You will be flying a traveling away from home on a weekly basis working with brankrupt and distressed companies.
