Communications Lead Consultant
Pros: I learned a lot contracting though to E&Y. The project was indeed challenging and I expanded my area of expertise.
Cons: The tough part was working for E&Y but not being an employee of them. I found myself filling the gaps they, as an organization, could not fill. Upon completion of said projects, E&Y took the credit without acknowledging my contribution. In the end, I provided the strategy work, templates and communications plan which the business and E&Y could not provide. After I delivered what they could not, they let me go and used the artifacts I created for the project. Often E&Y was more concerned with "keeping the contract" versus doing what was right for the client.
