  • Not really. It’s because normally the consulting engagement runs for about six months. Most of the time, the ex-employee has something lined up after that and the company has had a chance to hire replacements (almost always plural) and have them trained by the exiting employee. If this all sounds desperately inneficient, its because it is. Some exec fucked up, but they’ll never admit it, and the manager isn’t complaining because they now have more head count and a bigger budget.
