I'm a recently laid off senior CRM business analyst from a consulting firm and was wondering whether to stay in consulting which is tanking right now or go back to the corp. life, which I find to be a last resort, but I have to pay the bills.. Any advice/insight would be helpful and appreciated. |

Without reservation I would suggest that if you enjoy the challenges and diversity of consulting ...stay there. Corp life is fraught with people focused on one thing...themselves. Okay maybe two...making this quarter's numbers so that they can keep their job and make the most money. The focus on doing the right thing has been lost. If I sound like a synic, I am. Companies seem less and less likely to stay the course. They are "lost in the wilderness" and are merely racing around to try and find themselves. Consulting will come back...it's just part of the cycle. Good Luck!
