Pros

BCG has great Benefits and ERGs

Cons

The pay is not worth the damage to your mental health and working in a consistently toxic environment. Favoritism runs rampant and is obvious. Promotions for direct reports are given to those they like, not those who earn it. Senior management does do not value diversity of thought and doesnt want anybody that will question them. Questions are perceived as challenges and threats. If they perceive you as a challenge or a threat or advocate for your team members, they will remove responsibilities and projects from you and paint you as an underperformer. Retaliation is a norm within the Admin Services team and HR does not hold ASSMs accountable for their behavior. Performance metrics for leadership are not clearly identified, and they use that subjectivity to twist and manipulate how you're perceived as a performer. If you want a role where just going to be a yes man and have 20-30 direct reports you won't have time to develop, then this is for you.
