Can someone explain how MBB office factors into the firm dynamic? Coming from Deloitte our office culture is minimal given the nationwide travel model and cross office teams.

In McK there is a matrix between office culture and practice culture.
Practice culture matters more in your projects because that’s the common denominator between the people. For example PE projects will often be burners, Ops Transformations will usually be more chill.
The office culture factors in to your time outside of projects - the atmosphere on a Friday in the office, social events, office retreats, etc. It tends to be influenced by the culture of the city and the size of the office. New York is going to be less personal and tightly knit than a Cleveland will be

I would say that this is similar to BCG, with the added factor that many cases are staffed by region so your teams even across practices will likely have a lot of familiar faces. I come from a smaller office, Seattle, and think that our office culture is one of the biggest selling points.

At BCG I’d say we have system dependent culture as we typically staff system by system, so the Midwest/South/WC/NE offices have their traits. I’m in the Midwest and feel like we have a relatively more relaxed/laidback culture that comes top down from our partners

Our district is so lax on the students this year. With tech issues and distance learning days, we’ve gone from accommodating to enabling real quick.

Is anyone else concerned about how to raise the expectations and students’ self-discipline back to pre-enabling levels?

How much weight do you give Glassdoor and other employee reviews? In the process for a referral interview, looked on GD, and the company had a 2.9 with 0% approval of their “young CEO”. Flags included toxic culture, overworking employees, smoke and mirrors hype. It is an agency startup though, so a heavy workload I feel is common. It’s also closer to the field I want to be in, but does not sound like a coaching environment. Should I go forward or just politely decline?
