I'm over that hill and I also got on the consulting train a few years back. It's funny because I sometimes get recruiters calling me with good jobs (high salary, unlimited vacation, interesting projects) and I respond with, "Sure, but you'll have to double the pay and give me six months off per year to match what I have right now."
Never looking back.
- MrEldritch 8y ago>"interesting projects" Certain job categories seem to be really unusually exploitable in this way. Where people are working just as hard or harder as in other fields, but instead of compensating this with actual pay or job benefits, it is compensated with having the work be interesting, something the worker can be truly passionate about. People do work for much less than they're really worth because they're deriving some personal value simply from doing the work itself.
