McKinsey MythBusters

“BIG OFFICES, BETTER OPPORTUNITIES’’

Actually…

“ In my time at McKinsey I’ve been part of two of our smaller offices, Minneapolis, and now, St. Louis. The relationships I’ve been able to form with local leadership have been incredible. I‘ve played Spikeball with their families, been at their homes for BBQs, and have even cheered on their kids at a
gymnastics meet”

Savannah Rush
2nd year BA
St. Louis

“Coming from a smaller office, I’ve had every opportunity to explore different industries and functions during my random walk at McKinsey. A smaller office creates a strong sense of community. I know the majority of the people in my office, and they know me. Sometimes, it’s not the size of the office, but the relationships you can develop in closer proximity that can facilitate opportunities”

David Brown
1st year BA
Seattle

“I CAN ONLY DO X WORK IN A CERTAIN LOCATION”

The good news is…

“I joined the firm not at all knowing what I wanted to focus on. Almost 2 years in and 10 completely unrelated studies later, I fully appreciate the flexibility that the firm provides as I’ve been able to explore many of my curiosities. I’ve worked “coast to coast” (and even internationally) on projects ranging from a government’s plastics recycling program to revenue recognition at a large health care provider”

Josh Schuftan
2nd year BA
Denver

"I have explored more areas and functions at the firm than you could possibly imagine. From skiing with education teams in Colorado, to spending time in steel-toed boots in the copper mines of Peru, to hanging out with 5 year old to help a children's museum set their 10 year strategy, it is not an exaggeration to say you can do anything at McKinsey from just about anywhere"

Maya Kupperman
2nd year BA
San Francisco

“I’ll BE TRAVELING 100% OF TIME SO MY HOME OFFICE DOESN’T REALLY MATTER’’

Did you know…

“I chose a local study over a ‘flashy’ international study for my first project at the Firm. It was important for me to get to know my city and the people in my office so that I could begin creating a home within my new community. I ended up working with a handful of individuals from my office who are now invested in my growth and who always catch up with me during Friday happy hours!”

Isabelle Tamburro
1st year BA
Chicago

“I thought I would be traveling all the time, but I’ve actually ended up choosing to do about half of my projects locally--either because I wanted to work with local leaders/mentors or because the work was just really interesting. It’s really hard to predict what surprises a project-based job will bring you, so I’m glad that I thought about where I wanted to live and chose a city (and an apartment) that I was happy to come home to during local projects”

Bethany Rolan
3rd year, Senior BA
Houston

What you can get at McKinsey includes impact
from the onset, community to empower you,
and the opportunity to define your own path - regardless of your chosen office or practice.
As such, we recommend you solve
for connectivity & lifestyle preferences
when choosing your location.
