Anyone made the move from Big 4 to LEK at partner level? If so, any thoughts or reactions to share about your experience that might be helpful to others?

I am being recruited by McKinsey. I am just starting the process so who knows what will happen. In the summer I had an offer from EY, which was good, but I actually felt like my role at ACN was just too good to leave. However Mck seems to focus on really interesting problems to solve. My questions to other partners out there - if you left another firm to go to Mck, why? If you considered an offer but decided to stay where you are, why? Don’t want to waste people’s time if I’m better off at ACN

I have a partner-level offer at a highly respected biotech venture creation firm (non traditional VC).
