Since the new president started - You will be expected to hold a high utilization every quarter or you will be let go. They've laid off people every quarter for the past 3 quarters. While in consulting services, you have almost no control over your utilization. You can ask your manager to be put on a project, but if it's full, or there are no projects that fit...you're out of luck. - Culture is broken, many people in consulting services are looking to leave because of the shift in focus from helping clients to overbilling clients. - They only want to work with large clients. They have terminated contracts with clients that had steady work because the client "isn't big enough". - There are big shake up happening in executive leadership and management. Lots of people leaving.
