Got an offer from McKinsey for a product manager role but they are asking me to move to a Boston office (hour outside Boston). I am settled in NYC and am talking to the recruiter tmrw. Do I have a chance to convince them otherwise or will I have to turn it down? Unfortunately moving permanently isn’t an option for me but I would be okay with traveling (on my own dime or the companies) biweekly, etc.
