Moving from IT to a marketing + strategy

by ben_heuer . Updated 25 years, 8 months ago

I am working VERY well as a senior consultant with a top tier IT consulting firm.

However, I recently got an offer from one of the best companies in the region, and because I can communicate well, they are offering me the position of an ebusiness manager.

It is a bigger company that I am currently at, and the only concern I have is that I might be a small fry in the whole scheme of things. But at least its a big name, the salary is a bit better and they dont have to worry about where their next paycheck will come from.

The question I have is: would this be a good move, given the way strategy is going? I have a feeling that strat people always make more money (at leats thats the general feeling) — and besides this might give mean edge later if I apply to more strategy-oriented firms such as McKinsey?

WOuld appreciate any comments.

Thanks!
Ben
