Pros
The people you're working with are bright and fun (I spend time with coworkers on the weekends and would consider them close friends)
Cons
Cases are becoming a lot more time-intensive and understaffed
Considering making the leap from the type of work at LEK (DDs and some strategy) to Deloitte Consulting to improve work life balance and change up type of work (sick of DDs). 5YOE, thoughts? Anyone else done this? Deloitte Oliver Wyman Kearney Bain & Company McKinsey & Company Boston Consulting Group
Hell nah, move to another T2 or MBB and target a group/practice area that has better WLB. Heading to Deloitte is a step down.

LEK is pretty decent
