Hey folks - is it true that McK has a lot more opportunities for international travel than BCG?
I chose B over M a year ago and have liked my experience here so far - but international staffing here seems really tough!

Yes, lots of international opportunities in McK

Are they all listed in one place, so it’s easy to get on them?

Not always. Someone needs to pay that airfare

Weekly international travel is awful though. When I was staffed in Europe I’d do two weeks on site one off, it was so much better.

Definitely seems like it from an outsiders perspective. I’ve seen a lot more people from McKinsey work across multiple international cities than any other company

Yes, by and large true unless you’re itching to work in the Middle East.

I am but can’t even find those!

Maybe I’m the exception, but 4/7 of my cases as a C and 2/5 of my cases as a PL at BCG had an international component (at least 1-2 weeks of meetings/workshops in EU or East Asia). Maybe it’s the PA you’re working in OP?

Yes

Been having trouble moving on since girlfriend ended relationship 3 weeks ago after 2+ years of dating. Before ending it she came over 3 weeks prior to basically give me a chance to work things out and we had a good discussion but then I went back into our routine and didn’t really fight for it or have serious follow up convos that we needed. Now I just have so many regrets that I let her go. I know we still love each other and left on “good” terms but can’t forgive myself for my lack of action.
