Jahnvi Singh, an MBA graduate from IIM Calcutta, left her role at McKinsey to join Google, sparking widespread discussion on social media. In a video, she detailed her decision and explained the differences between her experience at the two companies. At McKinsey, she worked with multiple clients and various industries, offering variety and exposure.

However, at Google, she works on a single business, allowing her to gain deeper knowledge in one industry, albeit with potential monotony. Despite reduced domestic travel at Google compared to McKinsey, she now has the opportunity to travel internationally two to three times a year. In terms of workplace benefits, McKinsey provided perks like five-star hotel stays, while Google offers office pick-up and drop-off services and a healthier cafeteria.

Singh also noted a significant change outside of work, mentioning her consistent workout routine and increased social life at Google.
