Totally agree with you BCG 1. But rest assured, all/most consultancy firms have now closed hiring for large offices in MENA to hire people for the largest demand offices. In example, McKinsey only offers Riyadh as a start location to MBA hires in London. And this makes sense, cause that market has by miles and miles the largest demand. On the contrary, Flying in 300 people from Dubai per week, does not make anysense
