Management consulting

[Anonymous No.1848880]

I'm interested in hearing about career tracks for management consultants.

I was recently offered an entry level position at a management consulting firm (not MBB, but another global company).

Assuming I accept the offer and work in consulting for a couple to few years, what kind of career prospects will I have after consulting?

What do former management consultants move on to?

>I have no actual skills: the "career"

If you've never actually built anything, worked in a facility, or even handled budgets, you're not a "manager" or worth your title's paper as a "consultant"

List all assets produced by "management consultants" or any "consultant" that isn't compliance or bankruptcy consultation

Bain capital, an actual trasheap that produces star quality like Mitt Romney, the author of Obamacare lite, is the standard bearer of the industry

If that doesn't say all that needs to be said about "management consultants" then what does?

You go work for one of your former clients. E.g., you fix some company's cash management system, and they decide they like you, so they offer you a job in their finance department.

He definitely leaked from somewhere, that's for sure.

How's that withering vine you suck off going? (even your best competitors are cutting growth prospects) What's it feel like to be the one single career that everyone knows has no value and is an actual meme?

Bumping.

Every company is different. Check the company climate and make sure it's something that you can live with. Look at Glassdoor to see what people are saying about how the company is being run/handles employees. I used to work at Booz Allen and they had a pretty good advancement path. Now work for Serco and its more wild wild west. Advancement into management almost always centers around business development, and the management of that. How much business can you generate and grow. Plenty of work beyond accounting and finance, whether others on this forum believe that companies have real problems or not.

Some management consultants move on to independent consulting, others leverage the brand into higher corporate positions.

>bankruptcy consultation

I've met a guy doing exactly this.
Was a pretty based dude and 'cold as fuck'. He never revealed which companies they worked for, saved or even 'buried', but told me a few entertaining stories. He has no problem to piss off his boss or clients if he believes it is the right decision. He said he was fired countless times and hired back by his boss, some clients discontinued their contract with them and hired another firm but asked for help again a few weeks later. This is a guy who would have told Steve Jobs to shut up after another paroxysm of rage of his.
