[LA Times] By presidential campaign standards, Pete Buttigieg has been pretty much an open book ‐ but with one chapter missing.We're still "in the closet" on that
The Democratic South Bend, Ind., mayor has let reporters sit on his campaign bus and pelt him with questions until they get tired; he’s spoken at length about his personal experience coming out as a gay man; he’s shown a willingness to face some of his most withering critics.
But Buttigieg won’t talk about his three years of work for McKinsey & Co., the famous, secretive ‐ and lately, notorious ‐ management consulting firm.
Almost a decade after leaving McKinsey in 2010, Buttigieg is still bound by a nondisclosure agreement that his campaign says McKinsey is refusing to lift, leaving a large hole in the 37-year-old’s otherwise closely examined life story.
10 years, huh. Almost as if....
"We have asked McKinsey to be released from the NDA in full, and we have asked McKinsey if we can release a list of clients," campaign spokesman Sean Savett said. "To date, they have not agreed. We will continue to ask and are eager to share more about his work as soon as we are able."
*wink wink*
