Vantaggi

Pros include: - Great for CV - Well designed frameworks and methodologies -- you'll learn a lot if you put time in - Generally, cordial and friendly work environment with lots of perks (e.g. free lunches, happy hour, social, etc) - Good compensation / benefits

Svantaggi

My comments reflect working specifically in the Knowledge Practice which is neither Support Services nor Consulting. - Massive reorgs going on -- job changes, eliminations, etc - New more consultant-like job requirements (time, expertise, pressure to bill), same pay - Limited optionality for career growth in KT unless you want to leave and go somewhere else or go into consulting at BCG - Massively hierarchical (nearly draconian) management style of KT Management -- tremendous layers thick with political drama, favoritism and croneyism

Svantaggi

BCG isn't what it used to be. Former CEO Rich Lesser cared about Innovation about deep IP and expertise, truly about unlocking the human potential that powers us. Current CEO and leadership trickles down commercialization message, everything is about metrics, what's the business impact, how many cases did this work touch, what is the trend. Often times appearing shortsighted. Lots of politics, lots of words, limited action from PA leadership, largely because they are unable to make a decision, going back and forth on priorities; Every MDP wanting to own something, with too many chefs in the kitchen, and not enough true clarity. Incentive metrics are broken, and asked to do more, An innovation unit is not recognized.
