I completely disagree with this. McKinsey is often used to sell an existing idea. Plus for really boring MS office work. They don't bring in any new ideas. The company I worked for had various McKinsey consultants; this is pretty much what they were hired for unfortunately. Various consultants (not all) were also way too young (+lack of work experience) to suggest they had that magical knowledge. They basically just sell what some people in the organization already intend to do. McKinsey has the name, plus the people are usually better focussed on the political game that's in a big organization. There's not much magic going on though.
