These six-figure reports are produced by underpaid kids in their twenties working 18 hours a day.
The purpose of paying for these reports is for executives to have someone else to blame when their idea doesn't work. It has nothing to do with the correctness of the content.
- esseph 4mo agoThis is absolutely correct in my experience. It's solely finger pointing insurance.
- overfeed 4mo ago> These six-figure reports are produced by underpaid kids in their twenties working 18 hours a day. That's accurate, for the first draft. Similar to big legal firms - subsequent versions are signed-off and passed up (and if revisions request, down) the hierarchy, each stratum with its own billing rate(s). Which makes me wonder when the hallucinations got added.

- overfeed 4mo ago> Not where I used to work It can't have been at any of the big 4, because partners aren't skipping 4+ org-chart layers to look at draft documents written by early-career associates. I have no experience with body shops - if that's where you were.
- NoPicklez 4mo agoI would have to disagree, this report in question sounds more like thought leadership dribble rather than a report commissioned by a client with a scope attached. The purpose of most reports are absolutely for Assurance to decision makers or management and often times, we disagree with management or provide a view that might not favorable. Which just reflects the realities of what we have identified or tested. As I said, this seems like thought leadership dribble which absolutely even as someone who has worked in Big 4, I think they're pretty average.
