Undo

The past week, I've been inundiated with calls and emails from at least 2 partners from the firm I used to work for. They have been trying to convince me to come back, with the promise that the firm has now recognised its shortcomings and are making alterations to the consulting model in order to fit good folks (i'd like to think so) like me back into their world.

The way out? A new "Specialist capability" which allows you to take a more deeper Subject Matter Expertise Role, that also allows you not to follow the typical consulting career path of having to sell to save your soul.

It's interesting... But I'm quite immune with some of the promises the firm has made in the past. Also, the new "specialist capability" allows you to land at max a Senior Manager, which I disagree.

So we'll see. I guess I'm nicely piqued after getting pissed off with so many of my colleagues that I work with now, on their incompetence and on the amount of bullshit and red tape flying around...
