talent does not scale. IT consulting firms learn this the hard way.

my work at a big consulting firm has confirmed what i always suspected: a few talented people are lost in a sea of morons.

fine for you if you are one of the morons, because you will have a happy work experience (with talented people spoon-feeding you). if you are one of the talented, however, bad luck. your productivity will be dragged down by creating rules for the morons, you’ll have to endure their stupidity all the time, see them gloat with tales about accomplishments that are not theirs (rather yours) and so on.

this is the best reason yet why a job change is inevitable.
