I spent five years in this space (in a small consultancy that was acquired by GlobalLogic last year). I think this is how one of our salespeople might describe the process.
The reality tends to be somewhat messier. I especially disagree with the "personal chef" analogy. A personal chef is an expensive, dedicated, long-term employee - much closer to a full time SWE than to a consultancy. It's more like hiring a catering company for a wedding.
- keypusher 6y agoYou're right, that would have been better. I certainly didn't mean to imply this process always goes smoothly, or that the quality of the work they provide is without question.
- pjmlp 6y agoWhen I started down the Fortune 500 consultancy path, the quality (or lack thereof) used to bother me a lot, then I realised that most customers don't really care, what they want is something that makes their core business run, doesn't matter how. As long as their core business and KPIs remain untouched, and no scalations take place, everything is fine.
