Well meaning company trying to navigate industry changes - Anonymous employee CapTech Employee Review

Everyone is really just trying to hold things together. After Sr. Consultant, if you ever want to be promoted you have work on internal initiatives, network at events and excel on the client billable work. Sounds simple enough, but what ends up happening is things get pushed off to someone lower level, you cut corners with the client to complete proposals or you burn out. Networking events that involve alcohol sounds great, but anyone with kids or other obligations feel left out of the "in crowd". Killing it on projects is simply not enough. Two CEOs is redundant... especially when you layoff staff and are closing offices. Not sure what the executive leadership do once they are promoted to that level other than speak at events/ internal meetings and keep staff motivated. Very little diversity, especially the higher up the chain. There have been efforts, but more lip service and awareness than any actual change. A lot of my peers and colleagues in my service offering have left for other opportunities because of better salary, these secret layoffs or burn out . Right now it seems like everybody for themselves environment.
