Is McK / eyp in trouble - heard they didn't pay out bonuses?

Any reason they'd be in worse shape than Bain BCG etc

Yeah, not at all what happened. A certain subset of experienced hire associates got reclassified in an HR snafu after their compensation memos went out to a class year later and saw their bonus amount drop accordingly (and in some cases significantly). But bonuses will still paid out, total comp increased to be basically equivalent to BB in most cases.

Well, I would say it’s extremely dramatic for a small group of people. They are (rightfully) completely livid about the situation.

If I were affected I don’t think there is any chance that I would stay. The job market is still hot and this is a really big mess up, even if the pool of affected people is small

The $140K I’m expecting seems to indicate we’re fine.

Well, McK had moved away from pure strategy consulting long ago…implementation, software revenue streams, etc. Portfolio much more similar to a small Big 5 then to MBB these days. That’s the price of the growth focus.

Doesn’t surprise that margin profile / ability to pay bonuses looks similar to a Big 4 now as well.

This is not true EAP1. We still mostly do strategy consulting. And for our longer-term implementation work we either charge the same rate as our strategy work or do fees at-risk.

As noted elsewhere in the thread, we recently had a back office snafu with comp memos for a subset of colleagues. Outside of this cohort bonuses were as expected.

Complete shot in the dark but it's my perception that Mck hired much more aggressively in the past 1-2 years compared to BB, which may have come back to bite them now that work is slowing

This is my impression too. They basically slashed MBA interviews at my T15 by 2/3rds compared to last year. I am suspecting a lot of people will get counseled out over next 18 months.

We don't have midyear bonuses

😮 is this for too rating?

As others mentioned, we are paying out bonuses. The amounts for a subgroup of folks in the US are different than what someone promised, which is a problematic messup on their part. However, I haven't heard of this in any region or if any indication that bonuses won't be paid.

I’m a current biglaw associate thinking of lateraling to Quinn Emanuel. Looking for a more dynamic and trial-focused litigation practice, but I’m a little put off by how poorly Quinn seems to invest in support (tech, paralegals, etc) and generally seems to nickel and dime its associates. Curious how these issues feel for Quinn associates on a day to day basis.

I have a return offer from a big 4! Thoroughly enjoyed the experience as an intern and have no complaints. Would love to go back.

However, a bit confused if I should try and recruit with MBB’s or if I should accept the big 4 offer already and take the sign on bonus?

Would it be a blunder to NOT try recruiting with MBB’s ? Besides the monetary aspect, what are the other things I’d have to think about?
