McKinsey & Company McKinsey & Company , does everyone get the corporate card? Do people use their own personal card (for the points)? If not is it worth doing any of the amex upgrades?

- Everyone who travels gets a corp AMEX
- In North America, hotels can be charged to personal card, flights are booked centrally (not to your corp card), and all other expenses must be booked to your corp card
- You’ll hear a few schools of thought, but if you’re not traveling it doesn’t make sense to upgrade your corp card

Can you keep your travel points if you are using the Corp card? Mck1

Yes but you need to pay the annual AMEX membership fee (~$95/yr). Not worthwhile rn, but pre-covid definitely worthwhile

In other markets/countries, you do not need a corporate card and can do everything on personal card (was in another office previously). This includes hotel, food, cab, everything

In the US, same as what it was said above.

Yes, receipts for everything, but thankfully EA took care of that once I got one. Used to be a weekend exercise for many years on the most minor charged item (like a coke in a convenience store in the airport)

Should I renege offer from MBB?

An MBA recent grad. I signed with MBB last year. However, I have always wanted to do tech PM. I couldn’t find PM job in Fall and just signed MBB offer I have. I recently got an FAANG offer. It’s PM function, hard to break in with consulting experience. I declined the new offer during interview stage and again after they gave me initial offer, but it is coming back with 80k more in annual compensation. It made me so torn!! Should I renege MBB offer?
