Had a nice discussion with recruiter. Was excited to bring someone having entrepreneurial and real consulting experience to the fore. Met with team members (hiring manager?) and didn't get a great vibe. There is this mantra in the consulting world - "watch your back". I think this is what they had in mind. Don't think they are risk takers at all.
