You're explaining your understanding of commercial consultancy, but are obviously (and you note at the end) not detailing your knowledge of systems integrators that don't always happen off-shore. For instance, many large companies in the valley have contracted engagements with Accenture as well as partnerships - especially Cloud. Any government work being done isn't offshore.

Yeah, I meant the whole thing to pretty much be tongue-in-cheek.

That said, I'm very much aware of the onshore consulting that ACN does. And in my time in the ACN world, I was never once impressed with work ACN did - onshore or offshore.

I feel ya, and I work at ACN Fed :)

The fluff is a thing...

Luckily I get to lead a lot of what I do and in the applied intelligence organization where we're doing some interesting things as well as some fairly advanced engineering.
