Hi Fishes, I recently joined Pwc AC and was informed to update my checkpoint portfolio where we update all our investments. If we have some investments and if we do not declare them, will it be a problem or can I update it as Nothing to report. Recently I joined here so I'm having some confusion regarding this.

A few things you might want to evaluate-
1. How many people at Kearney want to exit to Amazon vs how many people at Amazon want to exit to Kearney?
2. At Amazon you will work on products / projects which will require 0 to 1 and then global scale. You will go 10 miles deep into arcane stuff which will help you understand your field much deeper, whereas at Kearney you will go 10 miles wide but it will be mostly preparing decks and a few implementations sprinkled here and there.
I know the person running that team at Amazon. You will be better off working for them. The lead for that specific team is amazing. I cannot speak for the rest of Amazon.

Both brutal cultures. Kearney gives you more optionality. Amazon gives you more specific credibility in a niche that will (maybe) become very in demand soon
Very well articulated. I am leaning towards Kearney for a more certain growth trajectory and less politics while mostly working on a topic of interest - supply chain network design.
I have a sense of brutal at amazon, is Kearney typical consulting brutal or is there something more in the culture ?

I don’t work there but interviewed with them last year. From my diligence it seems like typical consulting brutal. Long hours, client demands, etc. but different than Amazon where you’re just culturally a cog in a machine
Kearney has a great rep for that. Personally I’d go there and try to lead efforts on digital twin/ simulations/ AI-powered network optimization (à la o9, kinaxis). Better upside imo if that’s what you’re really into
Consulting is a sinking ship
What did you end up choosing? Similar predicament here.
How are you guys breaking into this space? Been working in supply chain for 8 years, haven’t been able to break into consulting. Appreciate any feedback and leads.
Supply chain design and optimization sounds friggin awesome. If you don’t take it, I’ll apply
I never thought I will say this but I believe Kearney is the better option. In Amazon nobody will know you exist at that level so you are always at risk of mass layoffs (very frequent), while at Kearney, if you perform well, you have a clear path + multiple external options. Plus Kearney will never ask you to sit in economy for 15h flights 🤣
Thanks Partner 2, what would be the multiple external options?
I am leaning towards Kearney too due to better fit, structured growth and less toxic culture compared to amazon.
In the end you could do more digital work in your specialty and exit to tech, or try a different industry and exit to that
