If someone can write 13 pages in bullet forms about things you need to change, you're not doing your job very well...

There are very few companies I have ever worked with that had the majority of these bullets covered, so no, I don't think this particular snark is very biting.

If you can't write 13 pages of bullet pointed recommendations to any client, you aren't going to be successful consultant.

Move the catered dinners to earlier times? Now that's padding.

That's actually a crucial part of the culture to me - my company does dinner at 6PM, which everyone in the company knows is motivation for keeping people at work until then. I'm very thankful it's not 8:15PM. I don't want to be expected to work late daily and then have it disguised as a perk.

6 pm is way too early for dinner. We don't work on farms without electricity.

For the US, 6 PM is a normal dinner time, electricity or not. If you're in Europe, I understand where you're coming from. Mind you, that's the start - you can come and get food as late as 8PM if you please. The point is that for the most part, everyone can get their dinner at the time they want to.

I don't want to eat dinner at 8 because if I eat too close to bedtime I get heartburn and I am in bed at 10.
