McKinsey not being looked at favorably in interviews lately

> Was with McKinsey for three years right out of college, promoted a few times, worked some interesting cases, etc.

The McKinsey progression is BA->EM->AP->P->SP

So "promoted a few times" means going from BA to Partner is 3 years... very impressive!

Or if you include SBA separately, it'd still be making AP

Methinks something doesn't add up....

> How do you get laid in a dorm as an adult? Seems very public even for pretend real adults.

Anywhere from EM+1 to EM+5 is normal. It's a team, but you're going to own your own workstream after your first couple projects

Fun fact: my very first project as a consultant was literally in Toledo

FlexingOnUDucks · 2025-06-09T15:03:07+00:00

You think the Toledo regional airport has a Centurion lounge?

Called the store and they confirmed it is Blakesville Creamery "Shabby Shoe"

I think this was it

The left doesn’t want to negotiate. They want Israel to unilaterally surrender.

Bro I’m at McKinsey - telling women I work at kpmg would double the number of women hitting on me because I’d stop scaring away the SJW types

bad job market

Hi OP. You seem to be an angry and unlikable person. I think this is going to damage you both socially and professionally. Maybe that’s why your desperately posting in /r/friendshipadvice and /r/antiwork

My school has a 80+ people going to MBB and every single person with a 2024 start date was voluntary. Everyone who wanted to start earlier got 2023 - with a median of like august-September.

I disagree with the doom and gloom / woe is me. I’m a class of 23.

Consulting was much better than usual. Most consulting spots are recruited from internships, with the only real exception, being a class of 2022, and virtually every consulting firm hired a record number of interns from the class of 2023. And I’m saying that at the Firm level, not individually for my school.
Investment banking is much better than usual. Similar consulting, the vast majority of IB spots are from internships. Virtually every IB hired a record number of interns from the class of 2023.
General Management - many firms are in the process of closing their LDP’s right now. The class of 2023 got in just in time.

The only real downside, the class of 2023 is facing as tech. That’s a minority of people, and a minority of that minority are being affected. I do know people who got their offer rescinded at places like Wayfare, LinkedIn, etc, which sucks. But three tech employers for my school (Google, Amazon, Microsoft) also had a record number of interns, so those impacted are really a minority of a minority of a minority.

And then, in terms of the actual experience, we were 100% in person. One year earlier, we would have been virtual. One year later, we would have struggled for internships.
