Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of former employees of McKinsey & Company
Admittedly the suitability of such lists is a matter of opinion - editors can disagree in good faith about what is "encyclopedic" or not with some leeway in-between. But I agree with other editors that this list is not of encyclopedic value (per  and ). People, even high-ranking businesspeople, change their employers all the time. The alleged correlation between "being a former McKinsey consultant" and "getting a nice position later" is unclear and exaggerated (and already briefly mentioned in the main article anyway). I'll also note, that one of the main sources for the list topic's alleged significance is not a "study", but a reader editor's pseudo-scientific news article in ''USA Today'' based on primary data with a simplified one-dimensional interpretation of the results. Such popular articles are fun to read, but don't automatically establish a relevant encyclopedic topic
