"leadership" needs to pay a contractor to see how the business is being run.
I'm sorry, what value does the C suite have to offer when they contract out what should be their responsibility?

"McKinsey will come in sc--w things up and then get brought back to fix it."

Did Stank work for McKinsey because it sound like the two have the same modus operandi!

McKinsey will come in sc--w things up and then get brought back to fix it. Rinse and repeat. If you need those critters to come and tell you how to run or organize your business, you shouldn't be in charge to begin with.

That means MORE cuts are coming!

Because “leaders” don’t know what people in their organization do everyday.

Just gives the “leaders” a reason/excuse to layoff more people. Just wait for it!

McKinsey is handed an outcome to target when they are hired. It is their job to come up with data to support whatever evil scheme the C-suite wants to implement so it can be presented to stockholders as a good business decision. They are nothing but outsourced rationalization and blame contractors.

Didn’t the “Two Bobs” on “Office Space” work for McKinsey? They were charged with identifying the “dead wood” and those who had “Management Potential” written all over them!

I would seriously give a thousand dollars to sit in on the McKinsey interview with Ward Chewning. I would pay two thousand dollars to have it on video. Priceless! Good Morning Mr. Chewning, should we get started?

Mr. Chewning?

If you ask 90% of the "leaders" what the people who report to them are responsible for, they couldn't answer.

“ How do our leaders not know where and who to cut? ”

Because they are NOT “leaders”, but (grossly) overpaid, sycophantic, avaricious, mendacious, “dark triaders”. End of story.

It's amazing the amount of time wasted on things like this. How do our leaders not know where and who to cut? You need a third party to come in and analyze it? What a waste of time. Just make cuts and move on.
