All of MBB have sweaty NYC offices. I would guess they are about the same. The average Bain office is less sweaty than the average McK office, but because of Bain's staffing model, if you're in NYC you are much more likely to end up working in PEG.

M1 we are very different than BB. At BCG and Bain, the office matters a lot whereas it doesn't matter at all for us.

MBB in any office can be a sweatshop! This notion that since it’s the Big Apple that the work all of a sudden gets intensified is a joke

Is there a website that shares announcements of recent contract wins by federal contractors across all federal agencies?

Sometimes the leadership does not even inform you on the status of a submitted proposal unless we win the work. I get why they are doing it but it would be great if there was an external source/website that would share this info instead of us waiting around to hear from them.

I try to bring it up and I get dismantled for being too mean and making “false accusations.” How much more obvious can it be?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
