Is McKinsey worth it? I have an interview coming up with a recruiter for a business analyst position. I currently make great money and work 45 hours a week on average. What are the benefits of pivoting to MBB?

Benefits? It’s MBB - you get amazing exit opps and a chance to be part of a global scandal. Congrats on the interview, goodluck OP.

But seriously, it’s all individual and depends. I would take MBB in a heartbeat

😂😂😂 The scandal part

MBB will find a way to fill all that free time you've got. So there's that.

Pretty good network once you leave, smart and helpful colleagues while you're there, faster promotions if you strive for them, and more topically interesting projects available for you to angle for.

I’d only go to MBB as an express route to better exit ops. I’m in Strategy at Accenture and while it might not be MBB I think you can have an interesting career if you find the right people and clients that do interesting work. The % of our work that is interesting, C-level is probably smaller though. WLB, pre covid at least, is better. Likely the same at Deloitte.

Hi everyone. I was a solution engineer at Oracle. I graduated from college in May and this was my first job out of college so the lay offs were pretty rough. I majored in Supply chain management and I have 2 internships under my belt. Do you guys have any advice or tips on what to do moving forward? I would like to stay in tech and I’m giving it a few weeks before I start pivoting to more traditional supply chain roles. Thanks.
