אודות פרק זה
Jenny Rae joined Bain in 2005. At McKinsey that year, consultants were home 3 nights a week – Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. That was considered acceptable.
Today, consulting looks different. But maybe not in the ways you'd assume.
In this episode of Consulting Unpacked, Jenny Rae breaks down the 4 real shifts she's tracked over 20 years inside and alongside the industry – and makes the case for what's barely changed at all.
We cover:
- How a 10-week engagement today compares to a 20-week one from 2005
- Why firms are now pressure-testing your commitment to stay – and what to say when they do
- Why 50+ firms are now legitimate career launchpads – not just MBB
- What's stayed the same despite 20 years of industry change
