Don’t listen to M1.... generally considered to be d’bag central and THE office to avoid if you can. Mainly financial services and healthcare. Very tribal. If you too want to be a d’bag then there are awesome mentorship opportunities.

If you want to be in and around NYC but want a more inclusive and encouraging environment the Summit, NJ and Stamford CT offices are for you.

Lots of NY work, although I am in NYO and very rarely do a local study... mainly because of the above.

Fast-paced, great access to very senior mentors/leaders. Certainly folks working in different countries, but there’s plenty of work to be done in NYC

I’d agree with the douche bag comments. Staffing also recently became more local, with Global and even national staffing lists no longer widely published, but there are still ways to get on foreign studies. In less than two years I was on studies in seven countries on four continents.

Haha I wouldn’t say NYO is that poisonous. Depends on what you want to do - lots of DD and FIG. I’ve met great people in NYO, but there’s really no culture cuz it’s a pretty loose office comparing to others

Me too. Think McK is unique in the global work opportunities provided.

Will second M4! With the firm for a year and half now and have done studies in 3 countries (excluding only business travels)

What are “studies”? Like engagements/ projects?
