Condé Nast Gets the Jitters as Consultants Come Through

Consultants are returning to Condé Nast amid rumors that more cost-cutting is in store at the storied magazine publisher.   At the behest of chief financial officer David Geithner, starting this Wednesday, sources familiar with the matter told POLITICO, the global business advisory firm FTI Consulting will begin meeting with Condé Nast employees to help assess things like editorial workflow, processes and productivity across the company's nearly two dozen titles, which include standard-bearers like The New Yorker, Vogue and Vanity Fair.
