Ceo’s office / Founder’s office roles - pros & cons

I am interested in transitioning into strategy consulting. I have small year workex in auditing. Wanted to know the Pros and cons and the future of these roles.

Pros-

  1. You will learn ownership
  2. You will be thrown at every problem which gives you an opportunity to learn a lot of things faster
  3. You will learn office politics, upward management and resource allocation from the most important person in the org.

Cons-

  1. If your founder is an idiot, you will learn to hate your job

Is this a good role to move to strategy consulting eventually?

Should I first look at strategy consulting at big4 or focus on founder’s office?

Can’t really confine my advise to a grapevine comment

  1. What do you hope to achieve from either roles?
  2. What is your background about what you have done before?
