Work that ends in production
You will see your work run in a real system with a named owner, not just in a report. We measure ourselves on what changed.
Careers
Build the operating models everyone else will copy
We are a firm of people who would rather write down a baseline than make a bold claim. If that sounds like a constraint, we are not the right fit. If it sounds like relief, read on.
Why McAi
Four reasons people stay
Small teams, senior exposure
Two to four people per engagement, with the partner who sold the work still in the room. You will be client-facing in week one.
Teach or leave
Every engagement includes capability transfer. If the client cannot run it without us, we have not finished.
Time to think
Ten per cent of every week is protected for research, publication, or tooling. It is how our insights stay real.
