If you think LEK is not going to lay ppl off you are delusional. Their work is based on deal flow and I don’t see to many deals coming thru. They will be hard hit and if they don’t correct soon, it could expedite their acquisition...

LEKA, or ALEK? 🤔

Anyone else thinks that Deloitte has been clearing some desks for new consultants? “Oh, hi there, LEKers! Would you like a tour of the office?”
