And 100% of it is dog shit. I have seen custom products from Accenture, Deloitte, and E&Y, and they were passable prototypes at best.

Accenture doesn't make shit. They bring in expensive ass consultants with 25 years of experience (on paper), then they sell something basically off the shelf. What's left of the budget goes to a subcontractor, who now has to glue the already purchased pieces together with spit and gum, now on a very tight timeline before the funding runs out and your tiny company gets the blame

Haven't worked directly with the others, but the Accenture story was the same everywhere
