Pros

Incredibly brilliant people, highly challenging projects, allowed me to develop a deep problem-solving toolkit, etc. Staffing is very attentive to helping consultants meet career goals, and the career advisory system BCG has built is tremendous.

Cons

The hours and the travel are pretty rough. This is not BCG-specific, but it has a dramatic impact on the average tenure. It's tough to commit to staying in consulting when you see your bosses constantly traveling, away from family, etc.

Pros

Exciting projects, Core business skills, Global experience, Nice people, Good compensation, Wide career opportunity, and more.

Cons

Long work hour to partially sacrifice your life. 100% on weekdays, and ~30% work on weekends. Large offices getting more bureaucratic in nature.
