Vantaggi

The opportunity to work closely with smart and driven people, particularly senior management is the largest benefit. Almost all of the partners have experience at other top consulting firms (McKinsey, Bain, etc.) but have also worked as CEOs or in other high level positions in industry. This provides unique perspectives, and the smaller size of the firm allows a lot more direct interactions with senior folks than you might get a larger firm The work done is interesting, particularly if you prefer growth oriented projects to operations and cost cutting projects. There is a mix of clients between private equity portfolio companies and typical corporate clients that provides unique challenges. The remote working is great for some people and allows for better balance than a lot of firms in the consulting industry offer. Travel varies by project, but usually ~5 days a month on the road. Last major pro is the growth potential. The firm has grown relatively quickly and just added a number of new partners which should accelerate it going forward. This should provide a lot of opportunities for more junior people as it grows

Svantaggi

For some people working from home will be a con, it is important to think about this before joining. The firm is working on adding more structure as they grow, but there is still variability and self training like at many smaller firms The hours can be long like at any consulting firm

Vantaggi

* Peers / leaders with top-tier (MBB) consulting AND line management backgrounds, which makes a huge difference to our clients and our consultants' learning opportunities * Outstanding reputation in the Private Equity world. If you're thinking about going into PE via consulting, you'll want to bang on this door * Minimal travel, much better work-life balance than most other consulting firms (although this is still high-end consulting, not 9-5!) * Leadership who truly cares about developing the people; we are a family, and we stick together in good times and bad (e.g., no layoffs when Covid hit the business hard) * Best feedback culture I've ever seen (including three Fortune 500 firms) - highly structured, clear set of expectations, culture of regular feedback. If you want to grow, this is the place to do it * It is extremely unlikely you'll be the smartest person here - you will learn a LOT

Svantaggi

* Typical small firm disadvantages - pricier health insurance, we don't have the fancy intranet sites of a Fortune 500, less name recognition (outside of Private Equity) than the "big guys" (although within PE, we've very well known) * We all work from home (when not in 2x/year firm meetings or at client sites - again, travel is minimum), which some people don't like as much, as we don't see each other in person as they might like

Vantaggi

1. The integrity, capabilities, and competence of the key leaders is world class 2. The culture, drive, and commitment of the entire firm is top notch; even though it isn't a partnership, it truly feels like one; BRP is a meritocracy 3. The work, generally, is very interesting, important, and high impact 4. There are excellent career options to advance at BRP, or "graduate" into great PE and/or operating roles 5. Blue Ridge Partners is a great firm to be an alumnus of

Svantaggi

Based on the nature of the work and clients, the work load can be intense sometimes; there are ways to balance and manage, and you learn to do this over time and with good team problem solving, communication, and leadership
