Gotcha, I was thinking you miss one year and your out 😅

Also, wait. *HIS* targets? Is *HE* demoted? What, is this 1950 and women aren’t allowed to be partners? Or is it just that it is only the men who are missing their targets??

(This isn’t a serious comment, I am just giving you hell for the fun of it).

Yeah this is only for men who miss targets. Since women don’t miss targets they have nothing to worry about. 😜

I think they typically have a runway since anyone can have a bad year, and sometimes the market is poor across the board for consulting services. But a trend of underperformance would result in buying out and separating the partner.

I’ve definitely seen horse trades among partners to distribute sales and managed revenue credit to make sure they’re all in good shape.

Makes sense since nobody gets there alone and we all need a pickup from time to time.

Depends on the severity. Could have less of a unit grant, reduced units, demotion to non-equity partner, or kicked out of the firm depending on how long and how severe the behavior is.

One year of grace period. Then the ax.

Out

They help each other out .... firing is a rarity unless it is multiple, consecutive years of missing quota.

I believe in the philosophy of learning from other's experiences, success stories, mistakes and regrets while keeping in mind that similar set of life events may unfold into totally different ways/outcomes for others as there are always too many variables in the equation called LIFE. People may arrive at different destinations at different times while being on the almost similar path.
