As of now, MSE is primarily known for being acquired by Kearney

funnylike

Kearney didn’t want to loose the renewal of the large defense contract while client wanted very reduced rates. Only solution was to buy a body shop and charge them at very low rates, while subsidizing the deal through global Kearney funds. Keep regional revenues looking good at the cost of reduced profitability plus a global loss on a useless acquisition. All this under the story of an implementation arm that will never pickup.

Insignificant acquisition of a body shop. Will fit well with the new batch of big 4 partners hired

Mea culpa

MSE are a good source of low cost resources, usually used by firms to lower cost. Truth is they are a body shop with very little intellectual capital. It is not a bad move by Kearney to lower their cost given their general direction of competing with big 4. In such situations of brand dilution, biggest losers will be talent joining Kearney because of its brand history and realizing two years later that they joined a 2nd tier firm

Tax Question:

I lived in VA for 8 months of 2019 and then moved to DC for the last 4 months. I got a federal and state refund from VA, but now owe DC “state” taxes because apparently they were not taken out of my paycheck. However, I changed my address in my firm’s system right when I moved... is this an issue on my firm’s part or did I screw something up?
