About Steven Feiner:
“I am originally from New York and started working in consulting in Chicago. I decided to move and work for Google in San Francisco. I have lived in now six different cities and have been to just about 40 different countries.
Coming out of college my first job was for IBM and my parents were very proud of me and everyone knew the name IBM. Everything was great except I was really interesting in doing strategic consulting. So two month in to my first job coming out of school I decided to quit in favor of a better job offer. Having this conversation with my loved ones didn’t seem to be going over too well. I realized there was so much stress involved in this resignation and I didn’t want to ruin my career prospects by doing what I thought was the right decision. After I quit IBM I moved on to a firm called LEK Consulting and I eventually got recruited away to a startup. As I was leaving consulting I realized I really enjoyed my time there and I wanted the option to be able to come back to my consulting firm should the startup fail. The normal way you get out of consulting is from being completely burned out and I realized there needed to be a better answer to this problem. I researched and figured out how best to do the perfect resi
gnation. One that takes the stress out of it and one that really allows you to cherish the relationships you have and keep the bridges in tacked.” – Steven Feiner
