Consulting firm McKinsey & Co. is paying its underperforming staffers to embark on the job hunt.
McKinsey has grown its staff size to about
45,000 employees — an increase of 60% from 28,000 employees in 2018.
Layoffs at major consulting firms have become almost run-of-the-mill as they try to pare back their bloated headcounts following a pandemic-era hiring craze. In March 2023, McKinsey culled 1,400 jobs in a rare — but sweeping — headcount reduction, Bloomberg reported at the time.
