isnt new jersey and new york city basically the same thing?
NJ is F-tier because it's just all the NYC rejects
NY
SF
LA/NJ/Boston/Chicago
the rest
No sir. Not gonna allow you to place “NJ” above LA.
Fair call out. Its close since most people in NJ live in the city and go to NY office (and annoyingly keep taking up NY desk space)
Matters way less at McKinsey compared to BCG and then more at Bain
Boston is better than Chicago at both B's
formatting is not ZD, pls fix
Congrats on Chicago!
boston office is for sure not better or more prominent than chicago at at least one of the Bs
found the chicagoite
Congrats on Chicago!
