Stupid me thought Accenture is different. Like any other consulting firm, some MDs literally gave away their soul to the devil once you got promoted.

Then it is not the right place to grow if people who are doing the right things are shown the door

Why do you feel this way? I’ve enjoyed it here

OP, it’s the best you can do. I think we had a run of projects with issues from what I’ve seen. Over selling and not having the resources with competence to do the work. This has caused s but if additional churn but also a lot more work for other people who are good at the job. This adds a ton of stress to the MDs (and SMs). True colors come out and we see who actually has leadership abilities instead of management. We be been here less than you and already have a list of a dozen or so MDs I would never take a project from. Some are warnings from others and some from experience.
What I can promise you these leaders are everywhere. At big and small firms and industry.

There are some great leaders. You’re working for the wrong people. That’s the great thing about consulting. If there is bad chemistry, or if someone posses you off, work for someone else.

I’ve noticed that many LGBTQ+ people make a point of “coming out” to co-workers or clients when initially introducing themselves. I’ve seen many partnered people do this by working in a casual mention of their significant other, which I’ve always thought was so clever and works even in a largely virtual work environment. As a single person though, it’s something I’ve struggled to do. What are other ways that you “come out” to co-workers and/or clients from initial introductions (or later on)?
