First time? Nothing much. 7th time? You're probably on your way out.

Depends on the reason you were rolled off (client budget vs performance) you will either be placed on another project or could be let go in due time.

This….

If it’s budget then probably not a big deal.

If it’s your performance then yikes, get ready to be PIPed.

$10 says they rolled off

Some clients do be unnecessarily picky and they just assign you to a different one but if you just keep getting rolled off no matter the client then i’d start worrying

like

One thing to keep in mind- I have seen cases where a client wasn’t doing well and decided to place the blame on a new A who had just rolled on to replace a C who left the firm. So sometimes they’re just trying to place the blame of their poor performance on someone else, and everyone usually can see through this

Agreed if first time just forget project and move on

Does anyone have any RAG formulaic templates they've used in the past that they wouldn't mind sharing? Working at a company that is developing processes and we do not have a consistent/formulaic approach to RAG status. I've worked in other companies where we would do line item milestones with their own individual RAG (determined by probability+ impact) that would roll up into an overall project RAG status. But, I'm unable to find a template like that easily.
