I don't know who this person is but something tells me he is the son of a wealthy family who has connections to all of those brands.
How far off am i?
That job does not sound like a real job, it sounds like a job title that is a thinly veiled excuse to arrange perpetual exclusive socialism for the rich.
Thank you for reading my analysis, the bill, regardless wether i am correct is about 69.420mil

C'mon now...
If they can't charge all that money to be wrong. How can they pay the US government the $722,000,000.00 they owe?
The Justice Department said McKinsey Africa had received credit for cooperating with its investigation and conducting anti-corruption training for employees. The $122,850,000 McKinsey has agreed to fork up includes a penalty it will pay in South Africa.
McKinsey is also in talks with the Justice Department to pay more than $600 million to resolve a separate investigation into the consulting firm's work helping opioid manufacturers boost sales that allegedly contributed to a deadly addiction epidemic, people familiar with the matter have told Reuters.
You think Purdue Pharma could have made all those
drug addictscustomers without McKinsey pushing pills for them?Won't some think of the Billionaires stock portfolios!

Well, consulting is often used because they need an answer to a question. That may be open-ended like:
"What moves should we make to expand our business?"
But other times they just want confirmation:
"Should we merge with Discovery?" (Sure, I guess. Here are some reasons you could. cha-ching)
"Should we split with Discovery?" (Sure, I guess. Here are some reasons you could. cha-ching)
Other times they just need to pay people to give them excuses to lay off people. McKinsey's always available for that.

To be fair, every single one of those changes was probably done by an intern and approved by a boss that didn't read it, but thought because the intern was young they had the "pulse of what's cool" in their hands. Also, we don't know know if what was done was the actual advice given. That would be a great game though, "guess who came up with that idea."

You aint wrong, McKinsey is the ultimate job farm for mid grade nepo babies and/or elite school graduates.
For example, Ursula von der Leyen hired McKinsey for German Army re-org...
then both of her children got plush jobs at the firm, her daughters 3 years there then leveraged into elite degree a Stanford

There is a club, and most people see it before their eyes and still somehow manage to not see it for it is.
Just work harder!

Get paid to do the work of someone who could be employed for a reasonable salary, but the board or CEO wants the answer to come from someone outside the company to avoid taking any blame.

Their new company split is not splitting Warner Brothers from Discovery though. They are splitting the company in a different way.

A critical part of being a consultant is personally knowing rich people who will pay you millions of dollars for your advice, regardless of what it is. "Giving good advice" is barely relevant.

I think it was Last Week Tonight that covered Mckinsey's consultation history and, shocker, they almost always recommend increases to executive compensation.

It's not the conclusions that are important. It's how snazzy the PowerPoint presentation is. If you pay them more, there will even be bar charts.

Why are consulting companies so successful? Is it all connections? Their role in appeasing investors by external intervention and change (no matter how useful)?

wrote on last edited by [email protected]When Chipotle got a new CEO (Brian Niccol, who has since become the Starbucks CEO) a few years back, they were headquartered in Denver. But the CEO lived in Newport Beach. So they brought in a consulting management firm to examine where the best place in the country was for them to have their corporate headquarters.
After weeks of analysis - surprise, surprise - they determined that the best place they could possibly have a corporate headquarters was in Newport Beach, where the CEO lived.
So they fired most of their corporate workers and moved the office to be closer to the CEOs house.

It is all connections and a box checking for the board and/or CEO.
The CEO can deflect bad outcomes on the consulting company for suggesting doing what the CEO had in mind to do, but didn't have the board's approval.
Corporate consulting is such a giant fucking grift and they are responsible for the enshitification of so much.
Why are there no employees to help you on the sales floor or at the register? The CEO wanted to hit a performance metric to maximize their bonus and brought in a consulting company to advise. The consulting company looked for low-hanging fruit, which is cutting costs in the form of payroll. The CEO dips when there is no meat left on the bone. The next CEO hires a consulting company to maximize the bonus and then you get fake sales to mask a following price increase. CEO dips and the next CEO's consultants gives the consumer a rewards program to harvest data to sell and drive sales through psychological manipulation(See Kohl's cash).
Corporate consultants are horrible people with business degrees looking to harvest marrow from a stripped corpse.

Don’t forget that they also leverage institutional assets to extract value using best practices!
