Got a random email from a supposed Amazon recruiter for a SDE position (which is not at all a fit). The email is amazon.com domain and there are no red flags in the body but it doesn't feel like an Amazon recruiter due to the tacky signature, etc. Has anyone seen this kind of cold-calling from FAANG recruiter?

I would take it. 10 years down the line you won't know the title difference but it is a great brand name and that does mean something :)
Great advise here. McK is a huge step above EY. Got nothing to lose and everything to gain.
Risk. Mostly work on enterprise risk management and pre IPO type companies.
Why do people care about title so much? It's the career perspective that makes a difference. This is a no brainer.
Taking a job for $25k is so short sighted, make sure the job has all the opportunities you are looking for long term. The title is not a concern, they may actually be doing you a favor as Manager and higher usually have metric targets that can be tough coming in from the outside and having to rebuild your brand (don't underestimate that factor either). Ultimately you need to figure out where you want to be in a few years and if Mac will be the place to help you get there - otherwise it is a crappy choice for an additional $625/week pretax (so maybe half that is what you'll see take home ).
I did a similar move with demotion from Big 4 to BCG and would highly recommend it. You make more money upfront and given that the promotion timelines are shorter you catch up quite quickly. The demotion is also a blessing, it's very hard to start in mbb as a manager/PL without having been a consultant, there's lot to learn
Would change in title impact your actual role on projects? That's something to consider...
What EY 4 said, I'm sure EY or any other firm would welcome you back, esp since you are coming from a top tier
The benefits at McK are insanely good. Don't forget to factor those in the difference.
If you can't answer that then you are lying.
If you are going to do risk there is no better place in North America than FSO. Join MCK for strategy not risk. We compete against MCK on risk projects and kick ass all the time.
The bonus payout has to be multitudes better than EY as well,
EY4 from another post McKinsey has a dedicated offshore teams dedicated to building decks...if that was what you meant by support
Titles don't mean much in my book. As long as you get to do the right type of work, I say go.
Ey8, you have no clue what you are talking about. They can't have the breadth that we do because they are *much* smaller than us. At least compared with Deloitte
What's Deloitte's consulting revenue? Isn't McK at $10-15B? Also, consider McK is more globally unified. I'm not sure scale argument holds up.
Do you think EY is truly a consultancy yet? I love the people and we have some pockets that can compete with any firm and I am fortunate to be part of one of those. That said, as a whole, our leadership still just doesn't get it.
I had an Manager who always used to say -- we are just all fighting over who can be king of the minions.
Make the jump!
100% go
We just had a D manager join as 1st year consultant. Seems the normal path
Mo money mo problems. Jk . Take it
