Hi Mckinsey IT ppl. How things are going at McKinsey Technology & Digital? I read on Blind that SWE/IT internal roles are second class there. Is that true? Is it the same crazy working hours like consulting roles? People on an interview said WLB is good. Is that true? Thanks for sharing your opinion. P.S. I am from nonOCI Oracle, nonUS location #mckinsey
I am McKinsey Digital alum . McKinsey is now a days management and digital consultanting firm. McKinsey has 5 orgs for Tech people. 1. McKinsey Digital 2. McKinsey Knowledge Center 3. McKinsey IT 4. QuntumBlack 5. McKinsey Digital Labs McKinsey Digital : 1. It is pure tech consulting firm. 2. Tech consultants closely work with management consulting collegues as a team in analytics/digital study for clients. 3. Designations and pay range are almost similar for both tech and management consulting collegues. 4. Study time can be anywhere from 1 month to 6 months depending on project type ( PoC/ Architecture / Implementation) 5. WLB is same as management consulting teams. Mck Knoledge Center : 1. McKC has products for diff vertical clients ( retail, telco..). McKC collegues customize these sloutions and implement for clients (Mostly remote) WLB is very good. McKinsey IT: Builds internal apps and platforms for McKinsey collegues. WLB is very good. Quantum Black: Experts in Data enginnering and data science . Mostly does implementation projects in data space for clinets . WLB is average. McKinsey Digital Labs: Offshore development center for client projects. Good tech people . WLB is good.
Thanks Gdhsd for the breakdown, it's super helpful! There are multiple McKinsey IT positions in NYC. How's the comp in these roles? Post Covid is there an opportunity of being full-remote for non-travel roles?
Stay away dude. Leetcode and get into faang
I ' d be happy but there is no FAANG in my location. Currently I am not ready for relocation.
@Gdhsd many thanks for your explanation ! Sounds like a position for McKinsey IT, for internal app. But they tagged it as McKinsey Digital.
Is there a possibility of internal transfer across these tech org? How much do they differ in (avg) comp structure?
What’s a typical career progression in McK IT?
Which umbrella does McK T&D fall ?, digital or IT ? How is career progression there?, how easy it is for internal orgs transfer?
Hello I am also searching for the same answer
2010 called to take their swag life back and their highly selective masters in bullshitting along with prestige rankings from US News. Consulting firms are still stuck in those times and as a SWE you are truly second class to those “I am God” consultants. How will you like to build a ML tool that will eventually spit out data for a PowerPoint that the jock from your high school will present to get a huge bonus , fancy meals and a whole lot of swag while you are still stuck being the meek nerd . Stay at a tech company for long term growth . It’s better for your future even if McKinsey offers you a great TC which will be short term .
Does McKinsey even offer great TC?
Hahahaha. This comment killed it. YogaBaba, go easy on the consultants, they have families too.
