I’ve never been able to figure out how they stay in business - it certainly isn’t by word of mouth!

And their embracing the offshore model gives you the worst of both - slick ‘Leads’ who have Zero depth, and unaccountable off-shore hacks. Went through a 2 year implementation with them using this model. A year later, no one knows what they did.

Like I said, they’re all basically salesmen. The important part of a consulting company is getting the contract. If you can get the contract, you can make money. Doing the work is strictly secondary.

We’re (American) competitors to Infosys and Accenture, often working on the same projects as them. They do talk the talk, but their work is less than stellar. The company we work for keeps hiring them, though. Guess they are addicted to the low rates and the feeling of getting a house full of people.
