My daughter was considering a McKinsey gig. A friend from Booth said "You can maintain your integrity at McKinsey, but McKinsey won't help."
I sure wish the rest of the firm made the same choice. But it’s a decentralized company with partners doing their own thing in their own corners. If you want to work on green energy, are you accountable for the folks doing Chinese mining? Or German agriculture? Or American pharma? I’d say it’s ambiguous at best. It’s not like working for a tech product where, say, the QA team for Facebook is still actively enabling Facebook.
so how many unethical projects can you decline before they fire you? Also hypothetically, what would they do if every one refused (eg:projects like the opiod one)?
