I’m not planning on leaving anytime soon, but I think this would be my next career choice.
I’m currently L3 working on the sales side of things.
Has anyone had success with this change? If so how did you do it.

(Jk lol, try fishbowl though, more consulting heads over there)
To be worth it (resume-wise), you gotta go MBB or at least a 2nd tier strategy firm (Strategy&, RB, LEK). But that's hard. They don't hire a lot of people directly.
So, your best bet would be to get an MBA first, but that's gonna cost you 2 years and $150k (still worth it IMO).
Having said that, in about 5 years (2 MBA + 3 Consulting), you could boomerang back to G approximately at L6, which is likely faster than what your normal progression within G would be.
Just boomerang after 2-3 years with another worthwhile company and skip the MBA and consulting bullshit.
Even if it was McKinsey + Harvard MBA it's probably an L5 at best and even then HC might down level for low YOE in consulting
