I know, it takes a second for the vomit to slide back down one's throat.

Other times they just need to pay people to give them excuses to lay off people. McKinsey’s always available for that.
What would you say... you do here?
Look, I already told you: I deal with the goddamn customers so the engineers don't have to. I have people skills. I am good at dealing with people! Can't you understand that!? What the hell is wrong with you people!!

We'll circle back to that.
Can I talk to you offline?

Bob, Bob.
Naga-naga-nagonna work here anymore, anyway

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

She also holds a bachelor’s degree in Politics and Economics from the University of Münster. At Stanford, Johanna hopes to deepen her knowledge in integrating environmental policies into the dynamics of international policymaking. Her academic interests also include nature- and climate-related risk assessment and adaptation, and particularly the role of nature-based solutions. Johanna is an outdoor enthusiast, a passionate dressage rider who participated in competitions on the highest national level in Germany, and she enjoys running and gardening in her spare time.
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!
Wait, she went on parental leave from her job, as in having a newborn baby, and used that time to get a master’s degree? Either the baby didn’t spend much time with mom or the degree is a joke, because I have a really hard time imagining having the energy to work on a serious master’s degree in a year or less while taking care of an infant!

Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask, which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an aftershave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturiser, then an anti-ageing eye balm followed by a final moisturising protective lotion.

On the other hand, they're grifting Zaslav, who is possibly the worst person in show business, so...maybe let them cook.

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.
Sounds like a job that would be easy to replace with ChatGPT.

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

"What's your advice?"
"My advice is to not take my advice. That'll be 63 million dollars, please."

They’re expensive because they’re cover for the executives to make a move. The executives can shield liability and justify any change by saying they did it in consultation with a big firm. It’s virtually impossible to pierce that with a lawsuit.
Worked at a company that would give money to McKinsey frequently for decisions. When the decisions went well, they would pay themselves on the back for their insight and leadership. When they went wrong, well they just got bad into from the consultancy.. not their fault

I don't care if you're wrong, I will propagate it anyway.

So, this bastard and Zaslav are the reason I can't watch older seasons of Expeditions Unknown on HBOMax. Fuck 'em both.

Consulting services are vital because they improving corporate synergy by utilizing market solutions and relocating potential where it is needed most.

"My advice is to not take my advice. That'll be 63 million dollars, please."
"Certainly Sir! Money well spent!"
You have to understand why they are employed though - somebody stands to gain from doing some thing, so the way they get to justify doing that thing is to hire these people, so they come in, deliver a report that says the thing is the best thing to do with graphs that go up, and it happens, McKinsey gets paid, the beneficiary gets what they want and life goes on.

Why are consulting companies so successful? Is it all connections? Their role in appeasing investors by external intervention and change (no matter how useful)?
Consulting companies are just esoteric quacks but for businesses.
