The growth in the company is up or out. If you prove that you can bring great things to the company and create great value, then you will immediately be rewarded for your hard work. If you do not perform well, or are just mediocre, then the company has no need for you and you will be removed from the company. This is good for me because I want to work with people who care about the company and that are able to bring value.

The growth in McKinsey is up or out. You will be rewarded for the value that you create and your ability to perform well with the clients. If you underperform or just perform at par, you will be booted out of the company. The growth is good, but at times it feels like you get moved up when you had just gotten comfortable in a position.
