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

Can you provide a referral for the MBB that you are currently at?

Thought I would try my luck!
