What do you like best about the leadership team?

Wanting to do the right things

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Not being over-competitive at all cost

What did you like most about the interview process?

Structured, transparent, and relatively objective

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Leadership introduces unnecessary stress and low-value add churns just to fill their insecurity and ego

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Partners are overpaid while all the other levels are underpaid for the amount of work and stress

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

The ultra high stress from partners is killing team's well-being and morale. McKinsey need better leaders who are not solely focused on their egos and need to justify their over-compensation. This is a structural problem caused by the very skewed compensation system.
