Accenture flat out sucks, so nothing to overhype. But if it were hyped, I’d choose Accenture

K1.. I’ve never see this industry summed up as accurately and as succinctly as you did. Good job!

McKinsey- Just look at the last few scandals

Sure but I wouldn’t say they created the strategy but rather supported it and helped refine it.

Everyone bought in including doctors and pharmacists who often knew or should have known better.

But lets not pretend that Mckinsey, BCG, EYP and Deloitte weren’t hands on for instance helping Valeant, Mallinckrodt and Turing buy up their competitors and exponentially increase the cost of life saving prescription drugs, as just another example.

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter? I accepted an offer a week ago with a great company (Company A) that for this season in my life seems like a great fit and only strengthens what I have to offer company B down the road. Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
