Making the move from HC BB IBD to MC

Title says it all—currently in HC M&A at a BB in a pretty sweet role (think Associate, VP, God) wondering about a lateral move to MBB consulting.

1. Lol do people actually do this?

2. ...why?

I'm gonna go polish the gem on my belly button, but look forward to hearing from you soon.

Regards.
