I hate to say it, but you really should have an answer to this already. Kearney is a different place to work and has its unique attributes. Quite a few of them will surface in a informational interview with any practitioner. I would recommend you set one up to get a better idea.

The wrong answer is a generic one, and one that isn’t personal.

K2: Yup, my comment was in reference to the comment about Doctors working for the consulting firm. It felt like C2 was asking for a highly specialized firm. I should have made that note in my comment earlier.

Maybe mention that you feel more comfortable in 4 star hotels and flying economy class and working in modest offices - as culturally you don’t feel entitled to MBB luxury while there is so much poverty and problems in the world ? Also mention that you don’t think clients should pay for all excesses and $1m+ MBB partners bonuses

Plenty of K partners exceed $1mn bonuses and I’ve heard it can go *much* higher than that

Unrelated question - what is typical bonus for principal level at Kearney ? Does 50% sound right ?

Target is the average bonus.

I'm looking to find a job like the Forward Deployed Engineer role Palantir Technologies in the UK.

I have become hooked on finding a job that involves solving the kinds of problems they presented during their interviews. Although I got to the final round my performance anxiety got the better of me (I think I wanted the job a bit too much...). I will reapply after working in a similar company.

Is it "deep tech" / "data science" or "smart enterprise" that they're doing? Any advice welcome.
