Pros

As a large company, there are many opportunities to transfer to other jobs and locations.

Cons

McKinsey was brought in years ago to organize the business, which it sorely needed after years of almost-random acquisitions, but it went a bit overboard at applying a cookie-cutter approach that often did not apply to certain business segments. The company took the outsourcing idea to ridiculous levels. A poetic example: When I quit the firm after 14 years of service I learned that my exit interview was outsourced to another firm. Case closed.

Pros

Clearly defined career ladder Exposure to a wide range of clients and projects.

Cons

Inconsistent team culture. Some teams feel clique-oriented, so it's difficult for new employees to integrate. Training can be limited, with a strong expectation to learn independently.
