I love it when the customer’s leadership pays for consultants to help but their middle management wants nothing to do with any of them and actively blocks discovery sessions. Excellent corporate culture! Yay, fun!

I agree. My company recently hired a 3rd party who did a culture survey. 40 percent responded, and of that 40 percent, 60 percent felt they were undervalued by the company and the company did not offer any path to advancement. But they celebrated the 40 percent response and ignored the 60 percent.... Smh.

I’ve worked at some of those places… I haven’t been on the consulting side, but feel bad for the consultants. I worked for a company that couldn’t spare the cash to give raises for 4 years, then brought in expensive consultants you can guess what that did for morale and motivation. Smh.

Just talk to leadership about it (in a tactful way). Peoples interest aren’t always aligned for many reasons.

It's sorta hard when you're dumped on a contract and left to molder with minimal contact outside of submitting time sheets and the company doesn't do reviews or pay increases at all and the only growth they offer is a conference if you kick and scream then sign a contract you'll stay for 18 months minimum after said event... I'm just a little bitter. I like my client but I'm really resentful of my company and I want to leave but I don't want to leave my client in the lurch.

This is why I stopped consulting. It's like, did you just want to pay people to ignore them?

Tell me about it

Middle management always making everyone's lives miserable. Especially their own.

Must be a bank or FINS

I'm not in sales per se but I manage my company's largest wholesale account ($150 million per/yr account). It's a great company, awesome culture, good benefits, flexibility, but the pay is not great ($60K/yr). All the pros outweighed the mediocre pay, but now with inflation rising, my paycheck isn't going as far and I'm having a really hard time trying to figure out if I should start looking elsewhere or if I should ask my boss for a raise.

Hey guys, so I have competing offers. One at Bank of America for 124, and one at Allspring for 110.

Does anybody work at Allspring? They did not provide any information regarding benefits, 401k match, or any annual bonus structure. I was told, verbally, that the Bank of America bonus is something like 15 to 20%, but nothing in writing.

Just wondering if anyone has any knowledge about compensation structure at Allspring, or any opinions on the culture there. I would be in Charlotte.
