McKinsey & Company Those who have moved from Accenture to McKinsey & Company or vice versa - would love to hear thoughts on the differences in culture, development, and comp/benefits! Unless you’re part of tech or see WLB as #1, is the obvious winner McKinsey? Thanks!

I’ve been in the two - sorry but not even comparable. At Accenture I felt like a “number” while Mck is a special place where everyone knows you and the level of mentorship/talent is just another level

To me it was worth it - but this depends on your priorities! But yes, more pressure in general, dince expectations are on the roof.

I recently considered a move to Accenture for WLB but in the end chose not to for a number of reasons:

- Comp was 30-40% lower
- Massive difference in expense culture
- Accenture is massive, vast majority (70%+?) are IT folks so culture is more geared to them than to consultants
- WLB was reportedly better but not enough to account for all the above
