FT is reporting that a group of advisory underperformers have been axed from the King’s Deloitte, about 250 of them to be exact. There’s apparently been no official announcement or communication to teams, just the unlucky “winners” being quietly swept away one-by-one. There’s not much more to the story, Deloitte didn’t want to comment and they’re leaning on the “performance management processes” as reasoning for why some folks had to go so even if they did it would just be gobbledegook about that. We all know how that works.
We’re also hearing scattered reports of layoffs at Deloitte US which…what? Evidently they forgot to put some names on the list when they first did this back in August. The good news is some of you will be free to trick or treat with your kiddos next week I guess. Someone should go as a Business Update meeting, that’s about as scary as it gets.
Doesn’t it feel like they’ve been saying consulting work has been slow for a suspiciously long time now? Just going to leave this here.
