Do mentorship and learning opportunities influence your job choices as much as compensation? Would you take a lower-paying role if it offered strong mentorship, skill development, or growth opportunities? I feel it’s hard for me to do this right now because of bills and kids. But, maybe it has a bigger impact in the future.

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.

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 But I'm worried about the offer being rescinded due to the ongoing McK scandals/issues and a potential recession in the making (which may prompt them to freeze hiring and/or renege offers).

Has this happened to anyone before at McKinsey, offer getting rescinded due to economic/company downturn?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

💲For those who DON'T think a six figure salary is possible:

👉Just ask for it. Really, you would be surprised. Might be easier to switch to a new company and ask. I did that 3 years into my career.

And 🛑 wasting your time at a company that under-values you severely. Sometimes switching companies every 2 years or so will allow you to keep raising the bar for yourself.
