In talks with McKinsey about a pretty awesome position in an industry I love. Thoughts about the move from D? I'm also getting promoted to SC in the fall. Is McKinsey a better choice? Better pay?

Really depends if it is Mck proper or in one of their peripheral groups. Could be a toss up!

Most tracks in McKinsey will bring you more prestige and money few years down the line. All tracks be it expert, solutions, digital etc. are Partner tracks as long as you do well. So dont worry about the path.

@PwC2 agree that that's the future, but if you're going from a client facing role to a more internal knowledge team / analytics services etc in one of those peripheral businesses, you may not be trading up in all aspects (in the long term). But generally speaking, probably a great move :-)

@BCG 1 I hear ya. Where does IT strategy and / or digital transformation practices sit for you guys? I'm talking the equivalent of McK BTO and McK digital...

Deloitte 3 - even IT strategy? My understanding is Platinion is implementation focused.

Dropping rank?

I am betting that I can get the same money at a place with a better culture - hopefully I am right!

DE&I is now a core leadership competency. If you are managing diverse talent, it’s important to understand what the term “privilege” means within a DE&I context so you can lead your team to higher levels of inclusivity+develop optimal strategies for solutioning around team issues/challenges. Everyone has some aspect of privilege depending upon the context. Privilege means the absence of obstacles/barriers, not necessarily the presence of perks. Though some would say *that* itself is a perk.
