You know what they say about consultants right - they'll borrow your watch to tell the time and then charge you for it.
They're the ultimate shills. Just go read up about McKinsey and all the dubious third world governments with poor human rights records they're involved in helping. Oh, go read up McKinsey's role in the US opioid crisis too.

So if there isnt a demand for consultants, would they still exist? As much as we hate consultants because of a million reasons, they exist because our corporate world is imperfect. When you are sick you go to a doctor. But when a company is sick, they would go to consultants. Plain and simple. You can continue having the belief that all they do is powerpoint slides but bear in mind if you really satki enough to not need them, then they would cease to exist. Are you satki enough?
