Management Consultant
Pros: You are surrounded by smart, dynamic individuals and leaders who you will build strong and support relationships with. You receive wonderful benefits and work in a lovely office. There is also a little bit of flexibility with working arrangements.
Cons: You are a slave to the work and there is still no real way of managing the chaos of client demands and the flow of work that comes from that i.e. chargeable v. BD v. everything else. Everything is last minute and not planned. Which means you work to tough deadlines and ultimately deliver a quality of work that you aren't happy with. This is not Agile/MVP/Safe-to-fail, it is simply unorganised. Working arrangements are flexibility, but is mostly directed at senior leaders who have the salary to drop back days or individuals with families. It is still frowned upon to WFH or less then 5 days if under Manager though it is encouraged?
