I agree with you. I just recently quit my consulting gig and I would tell my 21 year old self to work for a company that creates "real value."

But the experience I gained during my 2 1/2 years exposed me to multiple industries and I starting thinking much more "strategically" when analyzing businesses. Also, I worked with probably some of the smartest people you could assemble (less a few "odd" ones).

Also, the expense account was nice and fed me well.
