What is the potential to change service lines or even practices at McKinsey once you're hired into one?

Our practices and service lines work nothing like those at Deloitte. Switching here is not like trying to move from Tech to S&O.

Unless you were hired as a specialist in a sector or functional practice, switching is as easy as doing studies with the new colleagues and getting their support. It’s also not necessarily all that necessary to move. I know many people who are superficially aligned with one or more sectors doing work in a totally different area.

Hi All... URGENTLY NEED some suggestions.

I've got a job offer in australia for 120$ Aud. Pay is good but they reached out to me via LinkedIn now all interviews done. If i accept the offer they will start my visa process. But I couldn't find the company in Google or Glassdoor reviews. It's a new startup kind of consultancy with 10-15 PPL. I can only see few linkedin posts for that company.

Is it advisable to proceed? They're not asking any money from me they are sponsoring for visa. Is it safe
