      Incredible learning experience

      Consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      If you want to grow as a professional, there is no better place to be. Everybody here is very supportive, yet rigorous and honest in their feedback. If you seize everything this company has to offer, you can grow to achieve your full potential as a professional and as a human being!

      Cons

      - Up or out is very strict here and many are invited to leave the company if performance is not up to standards - You are expected to be good at everything (problem solving, communication and organisation skills). What happens in practice: lot of good all-rounders, not really someone excellent in one specific skill

      Great company but job satisfaction depends on position

      Financial manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Cutting edge learning opportunities. Internal training sessions from industry thought leaders, incorporation of new softwares and techniques into day-to-day work - Work hard play hard mentality - the organization invests in events to enhance camaraderie, thus improving retention. - Most people are very pleasant and personable compared to other professional environments. - Street cred for working at BCG is cool - The benefits are superb

      Cons

      - Flat organization unintendedly creates territorial behavior and rewards overly aggressive types - Some are overworked and burned out while others seemingly work very little. - Most day-to-day processes/skills are not transferrable outside of the company. - Increased organizational complexity is bogging down the back office. Data is housed in many different places and is un-aligned from department to department…creating additional issues. - Work-from-home policy depends on the manager
