Prestige hides a revolving door of consultants with no sense of stability

Managing consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Big-name clients looked impressive on a résumé.

Cons

Projects changed hands constantly as consultants left or were reassigned, creating instability for both clients and teams. Long hours were expected without appreciation, and employees were treated as disposable despite the demands placed on them. The churn wasn’t just exhausting—it was destructive to client relationships and credibility.
