I've done that too and fixed-price work is like handling dynamite. I've always felt it was good for new grads to spend a couple years in small, eat-what-you-kill, consulting shops to understand the business of software development better. After that, then go to megacorp/faang or whatever but the lessons learned in a small consultancy will help you see the forest through the trees.
