Marketing
-Pay -Benefits -Exposes you to what you DON'T want in a company
Think: Leadership acting in the interest of the path of least resistance instead of addressing actual issues that require them to do their jobs. Offshoring jobs and "quiet" layoffs over the past several years just to name a few. Think: Managers who nominate you for an employee award one month and tell you you're not "meeting expectations" the next and fire you a few days after your 40th birthday. They target you and invade your privacy in order to ensure you can't prove their illegal and dehumanizing treatment.
Manager
Been in the industry close to a decade, I find that consulting is the same everywhere, the thing that truly makes a difference is the team you get and leaders who support your growth - fortunate for me, I have both of that to help me get through tough projects or clients. The larger org and culture doesn't concern me as a professional service firm, team culture matters more than the overall organisation.
With the industry facing significant disruption (e.g. AI, geopolitical), the ripple effect is also felt in consulting. I wouldn't say it's a con, but most reasons people leave include a change in benefit structure due to cost-cutting and an increase in capability expectations resulting from a shift in market demand. The consulting demand is still the same; it's just now different.
