Any of the consulting firms work with SpaceX? Just saw they acquired a satellite company and and was curious. Get the sense Elon likes to do it all alone, but with integrations it’s helpful to have a team so maybe he does bring in external help, for this or anything else. Anyone know?

I'm not sure, but given his very public rhetoric against MBAs and PowerPoint I'm going to assume no.

Yes, while Elon might be anti-consultant not all his underlings are

I know Tesla has used MBB consultants in the past, one of their projects looked like it was for pricing strategy on Tesla Energy deployments.

In general I wouldn’t expect SpaceX or Tesla to use consultants. Their mentality is usually to do it ourselves.

I finally broke down and went back on HRT last week. I have been taking gabapentin for a nerve injury which I’ve learned helps hot flashes. I can’t tell a significant difference yet aside from maybe getting a little better sleep. I saw a new doctor (male) to get my prescription refilled and he seems to have a different philosophy than my last doctor (female). He wants me to be on HRT until 51, but after that he doesn’t recommend it. I hope by that age I’ll be off the gabapentin…

Accenture has been laying off folks (high chargeability high performance, low chargeability low peformance, etc). There has been no official announcement and they are calling it performance layoffs when they are COVID layoffs.

They practically asked folks to take Memorial Day week off to ‘adjust the books’ just to lay off the same folks who could of used those extra days.

Thankful for my job (for now) but ashamed of this firm. More layoffs this week. This is not okay.
