OP here: Yes! And also we acquired a Deloitte consultant but he is a 20 yr Navy veteran who spent 3 years in Deloitte. Trying to reconcile these stereotypes.[/quote]

Someone who only spent 3 years there and had another career is unlikely to fit the stereotypes and likely didn't really fit in there. The SMEs are a different animal than the homegrowns who spend their whole careers being groomed for upper management. In terms of stereotypes, I'd also argue they differ on the government vs commercial side.[/quote]

Our new hire is a ‘government’ type. Also in his 50s, not a SME but more of a generalist. Not your stretchy pant wearing bro but any chance lol[/quote]

At his age and short tenure, plus being Fed I'd expect him to fit few Deloitte or consultant stereotypes.  I bet it was pretty weird for him at Deloitte as a 50 year old who presumably was not a partner. He'd be an outlier for sure and I doubt he drunk the kool-aid. I'd expect him to be more like a typical Fed than a career consultant. 3 years is a blip on the resume for this guy.[/quote]
