Our PM keeps leaving off certain folks on emails or taking people off. Is this common? Why do they do this?

👆🏽yup, it's very articulated, and has a reason. The sooner you figure it out the better, so you can figure out your PM and the politics.

I have instructed PMs in the past to reduce call or meeting attendance as a) not everyone invited needed to be there, b) there were too many of us vs. too few clients invited, and/or c) too much budget was being wasted on overattended meetings. But as M1 indicated you should try to understand the reasoning and not automatically assume it’s anything malicious.

Wanted to know how different is management consulting in the US via-a-vis India?

Background : working as front end consultant in India. Daily routine is opening laptop at 9AM and doing work till 10ish PM, if the project is tight (which it is in majority cases) closing laptop by 1 or 2 am. Travel depends on project. Sr Managers have no sense of personal space in most companies. Money is goood.
