Good night 🤪

Didn’t get promoted and thinking of leaving Deloitte for the next level at Guidehouse. It’s a title bump so I would get a raise, but I’m trying to weigh the opportunity cost of going to a “lower tier” firm known for more niche services. Has anyone else been in this situation and what did you choose? Would this limit my exit opps?
Considering an exit from McKinsey as EM with 3 year tenure post MBA to financial services in tech org. TC is $325k with strong growth, WLB drops from 65-80hrs a week to 40-50hrs and no travel. Would you take it? Only consideration is that it’s a lateral move/slightly down in terms of current comp. Have been high performer st McK
Tbh who are these people
I think it’s the angle of the camera tbh. The two in the middle look scary.
Hmm personally would've classed Federer as McK but really none of them slot into MBB that neatly
At least we are aging well - Bain’s hairline is looking rough
Oh please god no. Each of these competitors is WAY more interesting and talented than an MBB consultancy. Completely different playing styles that all yield a ton of success. Much more interesting to use younger players: Jannik Sinner - McKinsey Questionable ethical situations (PED) explained away with money and settlements (Ignorance and plausible deniability) Alexander Zverev - BCG Talented, but involved in potentially compromising situations (Kohl's, EMEA work) as potential domestic abuse, but allegations can't be proven definitively Danil Medvedev - Bain Solid, consistent and dependable, but always falling a bit short behind the other two. No real controversies to date I can't use Alcaraz because he's way too much of a multigenerational talent with zero controversies.
John McEnroe - and he was in the 80s. Pretty good player honestly - got the best of Bjorn Borg and Jimmy Connors several times. Borg was probably the best of the bunch though. Made it look easy out there.
Only one MBB and that is Federer. The rest is wannabes
