I have a question for Consulting leadership.
Was is not unethical practice for firm to stop double hatting incentive for Consultant and below and continue that for Sr Con and above for 3 extra months? In many of the cases, Cons continued duing extra work for additional project with no monetary benefits whereas Sr Con got benefits for the same work.
I mean to ask should not the policy be same for all or are we slowly moving away from flat hierarchy?
