pretend ur me then, lived in NYC as well as 5 other US cities and numerous burbs growing up, thought NYC was the worst of most factors.

Maybe change to a different Euro city as the US ain’t it for enjoying life. US for making dough then get outta dodge.

I lived in NYC in my 20s, Germany in my 30s and moved to the suburbs in a mid-Atlantic state as we had our first child and entered my 40s. I wouldn’t swap any of those things for anything else - right place at the right time of my life. Focus on what’s in front of you and don’t try to replicate the things you had where you used to live - we had a bunch of expat friends in Germany that were constantly chasing the best American style breakfast in the city were in or complaining about getting a decent burger or the size of a shot in mixed drinks… we just drifted away from them and enjoyed what we had while we were there.

McKinsey & Company How likely is McKinsey to rescind an offer if there's a recession/downturn before my start date? Received an Associate offer with a start date early in the Fall. But I'm worried about the offer being rescinded due to the ongoing McK scandals/issues and a potential recession in the making (which may prompt them to freeze hiring and/or renege offers).

Has this happened to anyone before at McKinsey, offer getting rescinded due to economic/company downturn? A bit worried
