      Not for Everyone

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval

      Pros

      BCG is a super successful company full of whip-smart people, and they seem to truly uphold their ethical code. The pay is solid, and the benefits are outstanding. These are the things that drew me to BCG.

      Cons

      It is NOT for everyone. Know yourself. Do you enjoy being in a high-stress environment? Constantly responding to new problems and issues that arise the moment they happen? Working 10-hour days regularly? If the answer is no, don't take the job. The pay will not compensate for your unhappiness. Be aware that once an offer is issued, the team launches into "conversion mode" and reaches out with multiple excited emails and phone calls. They are genuine, sure - but the ultimate goal is for you to sign the offer. Not sure if the harder truths about working at BCG will ever come out during the conversion period.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      One year sets up for strong foundation of corporate expertise

      Cons

      Intense management environment and very stuffy, unless you graduated from MIT or HBS you do not matter.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Big company, big team, big projects

      Cons

      "70% business, 20% algorithm, and 10% AI" did not fit a person like me who wants to enjoy cutting-edge techniques in Data Science and ML. Partners often don't understand ML (but they can constantly acquire new projects. Admirable, except for the fact that this causes many problems in the projects. Hope this got better after my leave.)
