IMHO, I would not consider buying stock in a company that I know has an employee revolt brewing in its ranks... Especially a company that is supposed to be the expert in employee relations.
I remember reading an analyst who interevied Dale about 2 years ago. They talked about going public and the changes that may occur. The analyst did make it a point to mention that it may be detrimental to the company if the employees became disgruntled. BTW: In the same article, Dale said that free lunch was not going away.

Some would say it is a signal that it it being efficiently managed. When I left my last job, it was in worse shape than Hewitt is today with regards to engagement. The squeezes management was putting on made Dale look generous. I watched the stock expecting it to tank in the near future due to all the attrition. What happened? It quadrupled over 3 years.
Lesson I learned: Wall Street cares about one thing only: Bottom line. Dale's job is to protect the investors. Therefore, we find us in the predicament we are in as associates.
