What are the different consulting groups in McKinsey? Seems like there’s generalist, digital, and implementation?
How's the work life balance for someone transitioning from big tech to Expert Partner at MBB? This is for a Software Engineer track in AI/ML domain Bain & Company McKinsey & Company Boston Consulting Group
What are the most common M/SM failure modes post-MBB? Curious as to your thoughts - for smart people with good education, but still relatively new in career and domain expertise, what have you seen as the most common failure modes post-MBB? I'm looking for my next thing, and while I can clearly see the benefits of me (Bain M/SM) over an A or an SA as an IC, I'm having a hard time seeing myself leading a team without the leadership support at MBB (APs, Ps etc.).
Struggle with complex chart reading in case interviews and tend to blabber alot without getting to key insights. Any tips on how to get better at this?
Not MBB, but anyone interview with OW and have comparison of difficulty? McK is the only MBB I’ve interviewed with, so not sure where differences lie besides interviewer vs. candidate-led
Starting at MBB soon and wondering: would I ever find myself able to take ~2 weeks off for surgery and recovery sometime later during my first year, or is that just not realistic in this line of work?
Mainly two categories: Integrative and Expert track. You can be an expert in either an industry or function (operations, digital, finance etc.)
No difference in salaries at parallel levels but slight differences in progression. Expert track progresses slower but in turn you have more time to meet McKinsey expectations
Operations? Or maybe its just a vertical within generalist track
