are of examples of products these consultants have produced. It seems there is a lack of conscience. A factory for sociopaths.

And yet most elite MBAs would give a testicle to work there... Makes you think.

If only there was a board for this...

I don't know about that, but if I were making business decisions I'd mostly avoid them.
McKinsey hires based on high IQ and that's not exactly what you need to make a business succeed. You do need intelligent people, certainly. But when they're the ones making decisions about strategy and design, super-smart people tend to get things wrong.

I dunno, people tend to think that those who look upon them with utter contempt for no reason are scumbags.
and I will add my anecdotal evidence - the one time I worked with them they offered recommendations to do shite that we had already figured out wouldn't work, but the big boss who didn't know that forced them upon us. They went away, don't know what became of their report, we were successful. I am sure they got a few hundred thou for their efforts.

Pete Buttigieg is your example of a complete sociopath with no conscience?

No. They are an exceptional think tank that has provided insight to many of the most successful companies in the world......and got that way AFTER consulting them.
But, by all means, continue the politically-angled witch hunt.

As a former management consultant, I can tell you it’s not a great culture. They give the industry a bad name.

Don’t know about scumbags, but my company spent a small fortune with those guys as they constantly retooled our division. After about 3 overhauls, our division continued to make about the same amount of money we always did, which was always a substantial return.
The biggest change they got implemented was a change in salesman’s compensation. Thanks McKinsey... my last 5 years, I made a lot more money than I would have before.
