Pros
Simply an exceptional place to work at. Unique blend of smart, thoughtful and humble people tackling exceedingly complex business problems with passion and dedication. In an industry which is inherently unpredictable and demanding, BCG focuses deeply on providing a sustainable & flexible experience to make sure that its consultants are ultimately happy & healthy. I feel tremendously supported by both my formal and informal mentors and see myself staying with the firm for a long time to come.
Cons
High end consulting is structurally a challenging industry to work in. The same elements which make it exciting & energizing also lead to demanding calendar management and a need for real commitment from the org to help protect work/life balance.
