Curious if anyone has made the shift to Mckinsey from tech? I have an offer to come into Expert (but with expectations that I hit Associate Partner quickly):

Salesforce - 200k base, 40k (opening) + 50k (year 1) + 75k (year 2) RSUs, 15% Bonus

Mckinsey - 215k base, 35k bonus, 75k signing bonus

I know the salaries at Mckinsey skyrocket when you hit Partner - but the work-life balance and benefits at Salesforce cannot be underestimated - and my RSUs keep getting larger and larger...thoughts?

It’s not worth it. You’ll work more and make about the same, if not less after factoring in benefits and perks.

Unless you really enjoy cranking out PowerPoint decks, it’s best to stay in tech. Most people transition the other way around.

I got a call for a Java position. I told them I do not develop in Java. I do JavaScript with React. He says “oh yes, that is what the client wants”. So I sent my resume. When he sent the confirmation email it stated Angular/Java. I told him that I don’t have much Java skills. He then sent this (pic) as a response. 🤔🤔🤔
When I spoke to the client she had no idea why the recruiter added angular react as it was just a Java developer position, Completely wasted so much time

I wasn’t informed of the results and reached out, but the recruiter isn’t replying to my emails. Does this mean I was rejected?
