Good for you. I hate it.

I'm genuinely glad there are people like you though because as I leave Deloitte GPS it makes me wonder how other people do this and how our government even functions lol.

Yep. I have a staff person (who I recently inherited thru some organizational shifting) who has a pet project that SOMEHOW got funded a year or so ago. He’s got contractors on board and waiting for some things from us. I hate the project and would have never approved it. To me, the money is wasted anyway, and I just want it to go away. I feel bad for the contractors, but I’m not throwing good money after bad. My guy, the project POC, is pissed.

Hello all, need some advice. Am currently working for a government consulting agency, but wishing to leave due to the way the project is being managed...I am in at least 4-5 hours of meetings a day, so barely have time to prepare for demos, preparation of slides for the client, nevermind being able to write decent stories(tickets)... Usually have to rush writing requirements, steps, etc, ...
So I have been looking around.

Hi lady fish,

I’ve been with Accenture for 10 years and am about to take maternal leave. I got an interesting conversation with HR yesterday about leaving Accenture after maternal leave, and the kicker is to join the client. I got a couple of questions for you guys:

One...did anyone leave Accenture right after maternal leave? If so, what happened? Did they have to pay back anything?
