What are other great consulting firms besides the Big 4? Looking to make a switch.

Does anyone else find it difficult to get another job while you are currently employed? Most people say that it's easier to get a job while you have a job, but that has never been the case for me. What normally happens is I go to an interview with the knowledge that I can mess up the interview and perform poorly. Sometimes I ask questions that I know are going to make the interviewer uncomfortable. This is probably both good and bad. Most jobs I have landed happened when I was unemployed.
How do you deal with the feeling that your entire professional output is meaningless? I’m watching my company ignore every single one of my user-centric findings. They pay me to conduct deep-dive interviews and usability tests, but at the end of the day, the CEO just goes with whatever gut feeling he had. It’s soul-crushing.
Slalom is a decent consulting firm, good work life balance, amazing culture, challenging work. The compensation is less than the Big 4, but could be considered worth it, given trade off for WL balance and the amazing people. Has many PM roles available, especially on the Salesforce side of things.
MBB, LEK, EY-P, S&, A&M, Oliver Wyman, Alix Partners, ZS, Booz. Probably more I forgot but there’s plenty it just depends what you want to do.
Tech implementation would be great. I’ve honestly just been in government, on government contracts, or working with government clients my entire career. Looking to venture away from government lol.
DM me for referral in ZS Associates.
Hello, is there another way to connect you? I can’t DM on here
Just out of curiosity, I would suggest not limiting yourself to the Consulting domains. For instance, most Tech firms e.g. Google, FB, LinkedIn would also have teams focused on Government relationships
