nah what happened at Arthur Andersen was a carefully orchestrated/systematic violation/collusion to cook Enron's books

certainly no good press for McKinsey but nothing at that level

 

This feels like the 15th thread asking some variant on this question. The answer is no. Two McKinsey partners passed along confidential info, and only of them passed along info that he got in the course of his McKinsey work. For comparison's sake, Goldman paida $500 million fine for the Fabulous Fab scandal and is still going strong. McKinsey won't even pay a fine.

One of those lights, slightly brighter than the rest, will be my wingtip passing over.
