What happens when the other 9 want growth?

WTF is a consultant even?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

It's a person who temporarily joins a company, tells everything is wrong, writes that in a piece of paper and moves on to another company.

If their paper happens to say what the CEO thinks then they're invited to come back a couple years later.

Then you vote on it and they take over and it turns into a shit company that started out as a good idea, like so many others.

The only reason for growth is if you want to skim the money earned from other people's work.

A consultant is just a professional that works on a contract basis rather than employment.

A contractor does physical tasks while a consultant does intangible things... advice, reports, et cetera.

Ooohh, you're trying to put yourself above them. Got it.

I think this comment says more about you than it does about me. You might want to get that looked at.
