As far as I know, the pact covers current employees, but not MBAs. We target BCG/Bain BAs as well, but the hit rate is pretty low. Usually ex-BAs fall into 2 camps:
1. Had enough of consulting, want to do something else
2. Want to do consulting, so plan to return to former Firm
We do have some luck with ex-BAs who want to continue in consulting but have a specialty in mind that their old Firm doesn't have (e.g., BA from Bain who want to join CF&S at McK).

Hummm....
What you say sounds abou right. The real question mark in my mind regards the kind of "sales pitch" one firm can do comparatively to another. At the end of the day, the top 3 consultancies are pretty much the same overall -- the real differences are seen mainly at the local level (e.g. who serves which clients where) and in the style of the people.
So I am very curious to hear what they can say / how they frame their value proposition compared to McK.
We'll see...
