Exploring a lateral move to McKinsey from another MBB that I’ve been at for a long time. How is the culture / firm uniquely great, and how could it be better?

McK is unique in terms of ethics, integrity and the clients it serves.
It could be better with more clients like Saudi Arabia and if Iran / North Korea become available markets.

I can tell you more about McK’s ethics:
1- they serve the most authoritarian regimes in the world including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, among others. All the work that makes Saudi Arabia look like a modern, progressive country (e.g. Vision 2030) is mainly made by McKinsey.
2- the hypocrisy is the fire ICE as a client for “ethical” reasons yet serve Saudi Arabia

Been with company for 2.5 years in a SFA role, and they just let me hire an associate financial analyst reporting into me.

Has anyone else had this before, where you are managing someone but they don’t give you a promotion? Sounds bizarre to me that they allow me to hire someone but then are hesitant to promote.
