1. Able to help others or work towards a good cause - Can work in industries that help people such as NGOs, healthcare, banking etc and participate in pro bono work in developing countries
2. Non-routine work (different work every day) - Projects can last a few weeks to a few years and are very different each time so you never get stuck in a routine
3. Ability to travel to different sites on occasion - Lots of firms offer a balance of remote work and travel, but others require weekly travel Mon-Thur. Global travel is common.
4. Non-physical (no lifting, heavy physical work) - It's all computer work, testing and client presentations
5. Not related to sales - You're not required to cold call or sell but will sometimes participate in the RFP responses to win new projects. At the director level you will be expected to win new business and will have a quota but will be paid well.
6. Intellectually stimulating - Consulting work is difficult and fun. Lots of puzzle solving within short timelines and team work.
7. Good work-life balance - If you're lucky enough to get a remote gig the work life balance is good in that you don't have to go into the office, can wake up late and work when you want - as long as everything gets done on time. However, don't expect to put in 40 hours a week. More like 60 minimum and sometimes up to 80, with weekends being common. But again, you will get paid well for it at the higher levels. At the lower levels you're expected to pay your dues for a few years.
8. Pays 70K plus - the following are all in values for the US but Canada should be maybe 10% less: 1. Analyst - $60-$70k 2. Consultant - $70-$90k 3. Senior Consultant $90k - $120k, 4. Manager - $120k - $150k, 5. Senior Manager $150k - $250k, 6. Director - $250k - $500k 7. Partner $500k - $2MM. Strategy is roughly the same but the payscale starts at late Manager level post MBA.
