I feel like this isn’t the first time McKinsey has been caught encouraging or enabling some pretty horrific stuff. It’s probably time they get some prosecutorial attention.
- boringg 6y agoSeriously, they have taken a real nose dive. I wonder if they still have MBAs competing for their jobs or if this has taken out the top level talent (and shipped it over to SV)
- smabie 6y agoTop level talent never joined consulting in the first place. Wall St is considered by most a more desirable and prestigious career path. It's also usually more lucrative. Traders and investment bankers especially consider consultants to be major losers (including me).
- burnthrow 6y agoInvestment banker thinks somebody who makes less money than them is a loser, more at 11.

- iakh 6y agoAre you the ibanker or the consultant in this?

- boringg 6y agoArguably consultants help clients (obviously not in this case), traders are just facilitators of capital and executing on behalf of higher ups. They make money on large volumes of flow but provide no great service aside from liquidity or to line their clients pockets. iBankers on the buy side at least have to understand where the markets are going. Or have I missed what value the traders do? :)
- refurb 6y agoNo doubt you fit right in to Wall St. Typically IB and consulting at the top 3 are both very prestigious.
- smt88 6y agoTop-level talent never did either of the miserable jobs of mgmt consulting or ibanking. They can make as much (or more) doing something more enjoyable with fewer hours and a better culture.
