Wow. McKinsey, which has the biggest public sector presence of the MBB, really hasn't been doing too hot at all in the sector.
Its presence is tiny and it's gotten even smaller. Meanwhile it's bungling whatever opportunities it's getting.

How does Alvarez & Marsal compare with MBB, Kearney, Roland Berger, etc. in India?

To what extent is MBB a "mini network" itself? They say it's easier to land exits when you have firm alum at your target company. If you're at one MBB, does that same logic apply (to a lesser extent) for people at the target company who were formerly at a different MBB than me?

I'm considering to completely stop applying for jobs till the covid situation starts to turn around. So few junior jobs with so many applicants (many more than pre-covid). Any advice?

Traveled for the first time this week since COVID and got the dreaded “do you have kids?” question at team dinner. Him-“do you have kids?” Me- “No, I don’t.” Him-“Oh good! That’s the right choice!!” Me (awkwardly)- “I still have time… I’m not even 30 yet!” (Team member who knows about our 3 month and 6 month miscarriages looking on with THE saddest face) Ughhhh. He had absolutely no idea and meant well since everyone was talking about their kids but gosh…I wish this didn’t have to be a thing😩

Question: can an employer legally withhold your personal possessions after you leave the firm? I left my old firm recently and they were not happy about me joining another consultancy. They are withholding any belongings that I left in the office and have ignored my emails asking to arrange a pick up or delivery of my personal items. I understand the covid19 environment impacts the situation, but anything I can do to get my stuff back? Any help would be appreciated. I’m based in NYC!

Due to Covid, I was let go from my firm after only a few months of working there. I’ve since been rehired in the last few months. This is a new area of law for me and I’m not enjoying it at all. How soon could I think about leaving? I’m going into my fourth year and don’t want to get pigeonholed.
