I think your key comment is that you got your PhD and then went on to McK, but didn't intend to get your PhD so you could work at McK. Nothing wrong with changing your mind. I got my PhD and didn't go to McK because I didn't want to, not because I couldn't.
Did you get your PhD in 3 years after your MS, or is that after college? If it is the former, very impressive. Maybe you should have stayed in the field. If it is the latter, still pretty good. It took me 4.5 years after my MS, which was already 1.5 years below the average at the time.

they waved a lot of money and brand appeal under my nose. It helped sway my mind. HEEHEE. Especially as i really didn't know what I wanted long-term anyway. And McK is chock-full of people who don't know what they want to be when they grow up...
