Roland Berger
Senior Consultant

Working on exceptional projects on management level comes with a price – no doubt. You should be aware of alternating, but high workloads and more travelling compared to other professions. However, I think the job itself is rewarding, you get to know various companies and a variety of projects. Sometimes I had to pinch myself about the impact of the projects I was allowed to work on straight after my studies and but not least – it is a lot of fun.
