Boston Consulting Group reviews

I love working at BCG. I do work hard--no doubt--harder than my friends in any other industry but investment banking and private equity, and about the same as my friends that work for other consulting firms. Here is what I love: - I work on really fascinating projects--strategic efforts that are at the heart of the client's senior management's agenda - I work across a bunch of functional topics within the industry I focus on - The teams I am on have access to the CEO. Literally every project but I have been involved with in the last 3 years has had regular contact with the CEO, and the one that didn't had access to the U.S. country manager - The people I work with are talented and focused, yet also interesting and surprisingly down-to-earth. - We have a terrific administrative support staff and now, with our new office, pretty much the nicest office facility I have seen in the industry - Awesome benefits. Incredibly low co-pays for insurance, which matters a lot when you have kids - Flexibility. If I get the work done, it doesn't matter if I get home for dinner with my family then get back online, or work from home on a Friday afternoon, etc.

Excellent exposure to smart people, great companies and interesting client work. Good training and development. Global network and excellent brand name to have on your resume. Generally nice people who mean well. Fascinating collection of individuals, with quite a bit of diversity for a top firm.
