Hi,
From a BCG perspective these are the roles that I have seen people transition to:
- Learning & Development
- People (HR)
- Recruiting
- Career Development / Staffing
Hope this helps to clarify!

Ex-MBB, Experienced Hire; I will teach you not only the how, but also the why of case interviews
I have seen a lot of former colleagues either transfer internally or even come back to non-consulting positions. Fair warning though: you will still travel - sometimes even quite a lot.

Hi,
Agree with all the below.
- Most probably you will have travel no matter what, sometimes even more
- The transition is quite easy, however, you should have good performance to have the negotiating power
- Salary most probably will be lower / will grow more slowly
