What makes analytics practices unique? Aka how do QB, Lighthouse, Cognitive AI, that misc boutique you once worked at, etc etc all stack up against each other?

Been at banks, public service, education, pwc and now ey- everyone has a different understanding of analytics. Big companies will have pockets of advanced analytics but most of the time it will be reporting and dashboarding with terrible governance and privacy.

The more complex it is, the harder to sell/get funding for. Occasionally you’ll come across someone who knows what they’re talking about and wants to build out a vision but nowadays they’re pretty popular and often get poached pretty quick.

They get poached with money =]

More seriously what has happened a few times with me is that my friends have gone to other firms. Then when some leader asks them who they should hire my friend will say go talk to FB1. Then I get a call and maybe get poached. It has happened twice to me and I've turned down a few other roles. The important part is that you are a known quantity at that point so there isn't much of an interview process.

We discussed that results/outputs is better than billable time like in law and public accounting. Yet, his parents and others would view him as “lazy” but he does his job and makes a fantastic living. Time>Money and Results>Hours
