Vantaggi

BCG offers good pay and great healthcare benefits. Great peer group of smart and positive people coming in the door. There are opportunities if you want them for a variety of assignments across industries and countries. Good office locations in most major cities and some flexiblity to relocate. Annual practice meetings were the highlight.

Svantaggi

Both obsessed and encumbered by growth BCG is finding it increasingly difficult to live up to Denis Henderson's ideals and is evolving into a clannish powerpoint factory. BCG is no longer a platform for the vital few who offer breakthrough thinking and back it up with hard work - if you're in this bucket you'll find yourself in better company at one of the BCG alumni firms who have chosen not to accept the compromises of scale. Consider Bain or one of the smaller splinter firms.

Vantaggi

BCG has top tier benefits, really smart colleagues, good in-office perks, and has a great company reputation. This was a huge part of my experience and has made me go back forth about my decision to leave.

Svantaggi

This is speaking as someone who is not on the consulting side. On my particular team, office politics were very strong with little to no opportunities for people outside of the inner circle to assimilate. More broadly, I feel like the salary trajectory was a little slow, there is a lack of location mobility and and promotions can be hard to come by. Even so, I have personally seen exceptions be made for certain people. More broadly, being located in North America can be difficult since new roles are being open in other regions which is making internal mobility next to impossible. If you have any dissatisfaction with your current team, title, or level - there's a real possibility that you will have to wait multiple years before being able to make meaningful shifts towards your long term career goals.
