But the real question is "Is this time billable?"
This is my favorite post. You show them kids what nicely aligned boxes and crisp messaging looks like OP!!
My mom used to make me make her ppts but would get so upset that it doesn't have all the fancy effects, animations and jumping boxes and words!
i had a partner on the case once... he used to print the 120 page deck, went through the binded book with his finger, then stopped on some random page and did the following
1/ took a ruler and measured the margins from the page borders to text objects on the page
2/ compared the standard grey with the RGB code he gave previously
3/ checked if any of the bullets or sentences on the page were longer than two lines
if any of the points above were not satisfactory, he didn't bother reading the content and we had to rework the whole deck. i am just contemplating what would have happened if I put a clipart on one of those presentations...
A2 is your mom my client currently. So cringey when she asks for animations, clip art and jumping things. I've refused and she has someone else add them later. It's like someone turned my Mona Lisa into a 3D googlieyed monster
I remember when animations and clip art were all the rage back in middle and high school lol
My mom does this to me all the time but takes the credit in front of her fellow teachers !!!
In the words of Kendrick Lamar "Bitch, be humble. Sit down. Be humble. Sit down."
BCG1, although that sounds crazy... I've been reprimanded for having materials too close to the margins as well. Also, the color is just good practices, and the 2-lines... that's everyone in our A&D practice
Congrats - you just passed middle school!!
^ and this was at BCG? In Germany? WTF?!
BCG1 should return the favor with the partner's emails. fwd with no body? delete. "thx."-delete. "We need this tomorrow. but don't stay too late." - pull fire alarm in partner's hotel.

I agree - there are multiple rules of good slide writing, which differ from company to company. I for example absolutely love symmetry and proportions as well as full sentences instead of just bullets...
But like in everything, there are people who drive this to a craze, and there are some who just don't care about any rules no matter how meaningful they are
There are human caused inconsistencies everywhere. Consulting companies are no exception
Yes M1! Clip art as well!!! PPT for middle school!
That's insane
