Hi,
I have worked at a top tier consulting firm to improve a companies technology offering.
From my experience, there are two stories consultants of these companies tell themselves. One of them is the one you just told right now.
The other is where they can genuinely help with the problem at hand. Some consultants really provide objective value to
the current working of a companies system and provide well needed direction to a companies strategy.
Our firm has helped change operation fundamentals for these firms at crucial points in their lifetime.
- majos 7y agoWhat do you think is the split between these stories? How many gigs/how much revenue fall into bucket one vs bucket two, if you had to guess?
- throwaway_bcg 7y agoHonestly, the people who make it big in the firm have a great knack of delivering. It's a 50-50 from what I know. It is true consultants have less skin in the game, they can basically not deliver and the firm gets more business from other big names. But reputation is everything, one consultant that delivers splendid on a project has his reputation to maintain.
