Yes. Would be great if it discusses how the industry is changing and concepts should focus around it. Could be a few hundred pages but I would read it

I'm pretty sure that book has been written- The McKinsey Way

Have read McKinsey Way and it was huge in shaping my approach to consulting. But I also feel some of the concepts need to updated to today’s needs/ ways of working.

Yes. The McKinsey book is really old - write something about how the consulting industry is changing/ responding to a climate of disruption. Are the methods you’ve used in the past timeless, or do they need to evolve too?

Automatic red flag to have an engagement kickoff just before the holidays, receive emails at all hours of the day (to include weekends/holidays), be told there’s a lot to do but “it’ll be a great opportunity”, and then be told leadership wants people to prioritize work life balance? Figured I’d be looking for an exit soon, but this just pushed it up.

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
