They definitely don’t have any toxic femininity

Go read the other thread, lol

Culture: think product consulting firm with big clients. Tons of info about this on the site.
Type of work: primarily “startups” embedded within an enterprise
Integration: I’d like to say closely integrated, but the reality is it’s pretty siloed. Working on improvements here.

To piggyback on this, the work is split between two types of projects: Innovation sprints to generate business ideas and follow on Incubations to build the ones that merit investment.

So I am digital and live in Berlin and know quite a few people that worked there... at some point I chose between BCGDV and MCK Leap/Fuel. At the time folks told me they were promised a lifestyle they didn’t get (normal working hours that logically are actually long) and I went for MCK Leap/Fuel because I wanted to work in ventures globally and not limited to a studio. So far I am happy with the choice. Many of those I knew at the time I joined moved from DV to places like ThoughtWorks.

I worked McKinsey Leap but didn’t get to work “globally”. Stuck in an office working remote while everyone else was remote elsewhere.

My understanding is it’s super similar to McKinsey New Ventures, maybe check with someone there

How to deal with people flirting with you at work.
I’m married, and one of my coworkers flirts with me. Nothing super overt, but definitely not professional. We’re good friends and work together constantly because we’re on the same client, so I don’t want to make it awkward. Do I just do nothing and let it go? It is mostly just odd I’m not super offended, but I’m also clearly uninterested!
