Any issues at Logan this morning?
New to Fishbowl?

Consultancies have better moral standards than tech companies??
C1, which these companies have time to help build because they hire us consultants to clean their homes and make their meals (read boring implementation work). So we are aiding and abetting the process, equally guilty in my eyes imho
Despite all the criticism, the standard of morality these companies are held to is far higher than other companies or industries.
All said and done, they are a net positive.
Oh you’re saying negative plus negative equals positive if so... then NO it’s doesn’t and that’s basic algebra. 😂
Was in consulting, now in FAANG. Quite frankly, I’ve concluded that there are no differences between the two as both are profit driven/focus on generating value for shareholders. However, the latter definitely spends more effort in maintaining the image/perception.
Agree with P1 - most people want the best for themselves and it’s taxing to think of a creative life plan / also a lot of risk to go for what they really want. So they just do what’s tried and true. We need a lot of followers in the population pool to build and do, without asking too many questions or introspecting
Perosnally wouldn’t wanna work for any of them but I think what enticed people is the cutting edge innovation and tech that is occurring in these orgs. They’ve disrupted the world and being part of something like that and the learning is quite extraordinary
And the money. Def also the money.
I think it is the same hype that attracted people to the "best" schools, the "best" employers (investment banks and consulting firms) now drives them to the "best" exits, which can "only" be a FAANG company or tech unicorns. People get consumed with having to be on this trajectory as the only way to succeed.
Seems nuts, but we are all in an elite vacuum, so we think this is normal. It is always trying to find the next step of the ladder. Often there is no endgame. I often ask juniors, why Google or Netflix specifically?
There are plenty of ways to be enriched and satisfied with a career, but we seem to follow a hyped up narrow set of pathways.
Not gonna catch me on the national trend of increased productivity yet lower wages! It’s about the money, but working with smart people who grow you is a nice perk

My take - Facebook sells your personal information, always has, people are idiots for putting their private lives out there. Apple has children in China making your products. Amazon not only hastened the demise of retail amarica, they have been caught copying products and re-creating them as their own, cannibalizing their customers. Google leaders cover up for their horrific misdeeds, buy small firms and shelve them to kill innovative competition, and have monoplized internet advertising. At least Netflix I feel has created a venue and funding for more original content, even if they did kill my beloved Blockbuster....
I’ve often thought the same thing. The only company of the bunch I’d want to work for is Netflix because I don’t see any way they’re as scummy/exploitative as the rest.
Principal OP - so why are you hiding where you work? Is it not despicable?
It’s all a fad. It’s FAANG in the 2010s. It was consulting firms in the 2000s. Investment banking and blue chip tech (MSFT, AT&T, HP) in the 1990s. Big multi-nationals (GE, IBM) in the 1980s.
Idt it was ever consulting firms
