    That's why you get jobs at the consultancy that has to clean up those messes after companies are burnt enough. Most companies that get burnt will feel the reputation damage and go for reputable ones with integrity who respect push back.

    Usually you're not selling work on a feature by feature basis. It's usually on huge projects or multi year deals.
