McKinsey & Company How likely is McKinsey to rescind an offer if there's a recession/downturn before my start date? Received an Associate offer with a start date early in the Fall. But I'm worried about the offer being rescinded due to the ongoing McK scandals/issues and a potential recession in the making (which may prompt them to freeze hiring and/or renege offers).
Has this happened to anyone before at McKinsey, offer getting rescinded due to economic/company downturn? A bit worried

Hi Guyz,
Any one from IBM ?
I went through the entire recruitment process and got selected for IBM ISL. Now I am being told by the HR that they are unable to release offer as there is a hiring freeze.
Can any one please tell me if its correct or just an excuse not to give me offer. If its true, when will this freeze be removed?

I don't think that learning opportunities influence my job choice as much as compensation. At the end of the day, I'm here for money and I can find my own mentorship opportunities outside of the workplace. I would take a bigger salary even if it meant a lack of leadership and mentorship opportunities.
OP, where on the job role does it say you have an opportunity for mentorship?
On the job role I look to see if the benefit is paid or reimburse tuition for things like certifications and conferences because I’m done with my formal education.
