I’ve experience a sad opposite of this as well… it was a slightly different situation though. The consulting company was my own company, and a client convinced me to join their team as a T4 (Canada) employee and essentially drop the rest of my clients. At the time, things were slow and I loved the team I was working with, so I figured “why not?” What ended up happening is that I got rolled into their (relatively broken) normal software development process. Advice and solutions that they would have previously asked for and let me solve turned into protracted internal meetings and discussions and seemed to carry a lot less weight than they did before. What would have been a simple meeting and SOW discussion and contract got turned into months of debate, meanwhile I was just helping random teams do bug fixes. The relationship completely changed and I ended up leaving about 6 months in when I started to feel like I was losing my edge and not being nearly as effective as I could be. |
