Great group, but pretty hard working

I would highly caution about joining Kearney now —regardless of practice.

Nope, not a downer, just helping out a consulting peer.

Regarding culture and work environment, our surveys indicate it’s poor. Suggest you do a simple search on the Consulting bowl to get a sense for current state at the firm.

While the industry as a whole is in a difficult time, Kearney is in especially poor condition and our capital structure prevents us from being able to meaningfully invest at the levels required to grow and compete. This translates into negatively impacting you (compensation (significantly below T2’s like A&M and Alix), projects, opportunities, learning from seasoned professionals (many senior partners and principals have left)).

Feel free to DM if you want OP.

What would you say your m-th hours are?

It is really difficult to generalize. It varies based on the project. Some projects are OK, but some projects are quite long hours & toxic.

55 +/- 10 for the week. I log off before 6 on Fridays

I’m currently interviewing with a few top 10 firms and a couple top 100 firms for a mostly remote experienced associate/new senior role. Does anyone have any tips on virtual interviews and how to gauge the culture of the firm and if it really will be a good fit for you? I’m struggling to figure out that out because I used to gauge it on the feeling I got while in their office during interviews. Any suggestions would be helpful :)

What would you do if you didn’t need money? I have a fair amount coming one day and don’t actually need to work to live a good life (middle / upper-middle class). I work because of this vague notion of “ambition” and because everyone I grew up around is highly competitive and hard driving. I just feel unhappy so often and am wondering what this is all leading to. Scared I’m wasting my life being unhappy / in turmoil cause it’s what my culture wants me to do.

Recently, as you probably know, Dr. Seuss's estate chose to stop printing a few of his older books that had offensive racial stereotypes. There was huge backlash from white people, including teachers here, screaming "cancel culture!"
Now we have a white guy who murdered eight Asians in custody, unharmed; while the police officer who killed an African American man for allegedly trying to pass a bad check is about to go on trial.
Full disclosure: I'm white. But I'm still enraged by all this. You?
