What’s your fantasy for fixing this mess of an Org? Take your product back to Consulting? Swap out the Partners? Leave things as is but just have leadership act competently? Alcohol?

Labs is great WLB and pay but nothing is getting done and I don’t see that changing without a major overhaul of leadership. I would probably disband most of Labs and put that money into better general tech like better laptops and packaged software for the practice and a much much smaller org focused on innovation.

Interesting perspective…I feel my Labs team is generating significant value to clients and engagement teams

Wow is it that bad?

In the economic climate we are in, said with the best of intentions, put energy into doing the best you can on the things you are responsible for doing to try and get things to improve. It’s not 2021.

PwC1 that’s definitely the way to go from a logical point of view.
The work/leadership can just be all so demoralizing.

Ironically US Tech seem to have their act together. Only one partner (CIO) and a few MDs and they work more like a s/w company. May be other pillars can learn from them.

Thoughts on P&S specifically?

Products and Solutions (P&S) - not to be confused with Products and Technology (P&T).

Their name alone is very misleading. P&S is the group formally known as the go to market team within P&T.

They say they wanted to ‘get closer to the business’ (aka move into consulting) and they did exit stage left just before end FY.

Comprised largely former consultants turned ‘product people’ and a ton of outside product sales people. The model of how they ‘sell’ is bizarre and counter firm culture. Somehow, they are still hanging around under on the “leadership” of Suneet Dua and Darren Lee.

All these guys ever talk about is how awesome Astro and ProEdge are.

I don’t see P&S lasting much beyond FY23.

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.

Also the continual request(s) for self-validation is something I have never seen of someone at his level — and I’ve been around (and coached) a lot of executives.

I have to admit that I wasn't terribly impressed by the virtual Co-Lo for Digital. The exception to that, though, was David's insightful comment that leadership knows and expects that many of us are struggling to come back from the pandemic, and it's okay to ask for help and or take a leave. Digital culture, and how we are real and take care of each other, is just AMAZING. That speech alone made me so proud to be here and turned around a lot of my negative thoughts.
