Describe the project or task McKinsey helped with:

Mckinsey did an awesome job helping us redesign the negotiation process with our providers, finding negotiation opportunities and teaching the negotiators on how to proceed.

What do you dislike about McKinsey?

Implementation is the hardest thing in any business and it is the one that stands out the least.

Our company paid a very high ticket for McKinsey consulting but wasn't able to implement 100% because it miss the small details.

This is not a problem of McKinsey, is a problem of the consulting industry, that implementation is most of the time overseen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering McKinsey:

McKinsey is the one consulting firm to have when you work in a big corporation and need to solve strategic solutions or have to validate your own ideas.

It may not be the one to have if you need implementation or have a small company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is McKinsey solving and how is that benefiting you?

More profitability changing the design of process through the use of data that the company already own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
