Pros

As a large company, there are many opportunities to transfer to other jobs and locations.

Cons

McKinsey was brought in years ago to organize the business, which it sorely needed after years of almost-random acquisitions, but it went a bit overboard at applying a cookie-cutter approach that often did not apply to certain business segments. The company took the outsourcing idea to ridiculous levels. A poetic example: When I quit the firm after 14 years of service I learned that my exit interview was outsourced to another firm. Case closed.

Pros

Great role to transition into the insurance industry. Many resources and opportunities to expand technical knowledge. Client visits are great if you like to travel. Lucky to have a manager who doesn’t micromanage. If you’re organized, driven, and good at communicating you’ll do great.

Cons

Can be stressful at times around busy renewal cycles. Travel often depending on industry and clients.
