Do you know of any consulting firms that have diversity in their mission? Which?

A lot of them have them as goals. Do they actually practice what they preach? Not at my shop.

Yeah, that’s what I imagined and is why I’m looking for it in the mission specifically.

Consulting business is all about image, companies mostly buy the BS for CYA because the person at client who makes the decision and need to deliver something also has to answer to someone in case something goes wrong. Literally no consulting shop ever follows what they preach, it’s all about showing how they’re better from others

In terms of what? I could see a firm stating they recognize diversity may contribute to better results.

Don’t know that I’ve ever seen (nor honestly have I ever looked I guess) to see if someone’s mission is to be diverse. It almost seems like lip service if the mission is to have diversity versus recognizing diverse individuals bring diverse and better well thought out strategies or something. I could see the latter but don’t read much into consulting firm mission statements to begin with.

What happened to SPED working with Gen Ed? Maybe I’m old school, but this seems so wrong to me. Thoughts?

Any consultant here who has worked at Citadel or knows someone who is working at Citadel? A recruiter from there reached out to me today, and I got the sense that the culture there is more intense compared to consulting. How would you compare Citadel vs MBB on the below points:

a) Culture
b) Diversity (I am an international student and a person of color, and my sense is that Citadel is not as international)
c) Comp trajectory

Thanks!

Hi! Trying to sell a client on casting someone with a disability (that in no way affects or changes the story) in a film. Their concern is it will 'add an unnecessary layer'. Does anyone have links to a good presentation/data set to prove the benefit of normalising the inclusion of disability? Want to convince them with data. TIA!!!

TCS Hr revised my ctc to 27.5lpa from 24lpa for C3A band & shared ctc break up. I negotiated asking him to revise the fixed comp to 26lpa & JB. He said that he would try for fixed comp of 26lpa but no JB. Later he came back saying he can't get an approval for 28lpa & asking me if I'm okay with 24lpa & he would try to get 24lpa also if possible. Is he trying to get the ctc down or does he can't get approval? How do I get him to give the 27.5lpa break up offer? YOE:9y6m Role:Infra ManagerTata Cons

They sometimes ask me for help with stuff, but I’m just getting annoyed at this point. Can I just say “no” since they’re about to be a mid/senior associate who should know all of this?
