Advising the client to lay off its private owner. Classic KPMG advice.

Very unlikely given the size of London's office and UK "recent history" with Bain

But could be, it just doesn't make sense to me given everything

To clarify: not necessarily implementation of this (although you do get results delivery type cases like that), but typically designing the cost reduction programme (which is the stage Meta will currently be in)

It is sad how much of consulting is simply to enable circular finger pointing.

Gotta leech of the system somehow.

I made a couple errors at a new job. An important document to be distributed had wrong information on it, which was proofread by 2 other people. Then a couple of typos in emails, the person micromanaging me told me to send out but I didn’t fix the errors. Failed to meet a deadline but completed 95%. I was written up over all this last week, fired this week. There’s a lot more to this but I think it’s because the DM doesn’t like me.

The Current scenario of high attrition rates and job shift by taking multiple offers has been caused by a resource crunch in the market. However I have a feeling that this particular scenario of shifting jobs by way of multiple offers and getting high salary is creating a bubble in the market which will burst causing a ripple effect of lay offs due to cost saving efforts by organisations in the near future. In a scenario like this how can one change the job by avoiding the bubble?
