How does staffing work?
i read in an earlier thread that someone working in the dallas office could be staffed on a project in miami or seattle, etc.
could someone explain the reasons for this? to me it would seem to make more sense to staff people on a regional basis.
thx for clearing up my confusion
Firms will staff based on skills and resource availability (and to a lesser extent the client budget). Its great if these all come together in the office managing the engagement, but often this is not the case..
hmm, i can see your point.
i would assume that since the larger offices (nyc, chicago, san fran) have more consultants, they also have more people having more expertise in specific industries. if this is true, then i suppose that the majority of the consultants traveling long-distance to client sites outside of their home region originate from these larger offices. is this the case?
on the flip side, i can't imagine many consultants from smaller offices, like atlanta, make those long distance trips.
Firm specific, and in many cases, region specific. From what I understand, you can either optimize location, industry/client, function, or the specific partner you're working for, but you're not going to get all of them on a given case.
