I came from industry and was steadily working my way up the ranks- moved to consulting and have not only done much more interesting work, and more challenging work, I have also fast tracked myself up the industry career path- I will go back having jumped a few rungs of the ladder and got some experiences I couldn't have got elsewhere.
Plus you'll never work with a brighter, funnier, more interesting bunch than consultants- so many different backgrounds, perspectives and world views in my firm- its fabulous
Plus I'm easily bored
