Well, fair point. It doesn't work for their clients.

As an ex-consultant: consulting at that level is kind of a grift. They over-promise and under-deliver as SOP. It's ripe for AI disruption, whatever that looks like.

Ideally, executives will get replaced by AI soon. Which should actually be easier than engineers. That will kind of solve the consulting problem automatically.

This would be terrible for McKinsey as they sell exclusively through executives who then punch all their wisdoms down on the plebs

So it would be great for the rest of mankind.
