Why consulting does not impress me?

  • Short cycles with limited data exposure limit understanding of solutions. 
  • Innovation needs iterations, and scoped work does not allow for a deep dive to solve the problem at scale. 
  • Tech expertise is important, but it is equally important to solve the right problems in the right way. 
  • The perspective of domain and business problems with tech solutions often lacks, and quicker cycles are good, but meaningful and impactful solutions are what matter, not intermittent or stop-gap solutions. 
  • Building a world-class solution requires goal-oriented thinking, not task-based thinking.

Keep exploring!
