Here is a story my ex-colleague told me about his workplace, a small medical device manufacturer.
The company's own regulatory affairs VP quit. The own regulatory affairs manager was laid off. The company hired 4 consultants to run the regulatory affairs function. One was given the title of acting VP, regulatory affairs; another replaced the laid off manager with two regulatory specialists (company employees) reporting to her.
This is new to me. Companies hire consultants for their technical expertise. Companies hire them and manage them. This company, instead, let consultants enter its management structure/org chart. I thought this is crazy but I never worked for a small business. Perhaps this is common for small business?
