I've been told there are two places which value experience:
1. A large organization where they have enough people with decades of knowledge to recognize what that is worth.
2. A small startup as head or lead on some domain where they need your knowledge to build their products.
It used to be that you could consult but I can tell you from direct experience with this market that it has been flooded with folks who've never consulted but neednwork, e.g. they are charging way too little. The flip side, it's a great time to hire "cheap" contract talent.
