The bar for getting hired into MBB is very high and getting fired is equally so, so that essentially you are trapped once you are inside, unless you make a conscious attempt to get out of the bubble. Of course if you do something that violates values, then sure, there is no hiding, but that would be true for any company

Agree with Manager 2. The up or out culture is a self fulfilling prophecy in that many folks (part of a class of incoming consultants), all of whom are Type A personalities, themselves leave if they cannot progress to the next step in ladder within 6-12 months of their class, otherwise they risk falling behind their class. No one wants to be an Associate staffed to a manager who was once a peer. This is not to say you are being expelled from the Firm. If you do get an issues rating for poor performance, there is always enough work happening in these firms to focus on your areas of strength - for example, if you are weak on analytics, take up work that has less of it, e.g. organization redesign and human capital strategy

How is severance at McK? If you have something lined up, severance is like bonus !!

What are you going to do after you get fired?

Good luck

At least you’ll get severance!

Boomer. I am in between jobs. Laid off in 10/21 after 16+ yrs, with an ABA firm. RIF. Still on excellent terms. Took my time living off generous package and didn’t seriously start applying until 01/22. Made a rookie mistake and accepted first offer.
Turns out job wasn’t as advertised. Mutual parting of ways 3/22. Due diligence is critical.
Now interviewing a LOT. Some temp work, I still have “it”. I relate to all gens. Willing to mentor AND learn from all. Tech savvy, CTE from day one. Leads?

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?
