      You get to work with the best in the business

      Pros

      You work with some of the brightest minds in the industry Extraordinary benefits (e.g. no premium for health, dental and vision insurance with no deductible)

      Cons

      The standard is set very high (sometimes unacheiveable). Some biased judgement. If for any reason someone doesn't like you in the management, you will be let go for very weird and disheartening reasons

      Worked incredibly hard (70+ hour weeks frequent) but learned a ton

      Pros

      Awesome exit opportunities, incredible benefits, incredibly bright colleagues

      Cons

      Very challenging to maintain a fulfilling personal life while working in this job. The client is always right and it was not unheard of to get an email on a Saturday evening that required a response within a few hours.

      Pros

      BCG offers good pay and great healthcare benefits. Great peer group of smart and positive people coming in the door. There are opportunities if you want them for a variety of assignments across industries and countries. Good office locations in most major cities and some flexiblity to relocate. Annual practice meetings were the highlight.

      Cons

      Both obsessed and encumbered by growth BCG is finding it increasingly difficult to live up to Denis Henderson's ideals and is evolving into a clannish powerpoint factory. BCG is no longer a platform for the vital few who offer breakthrough thinking and back it up with hard work - if you're in this bucket you'll find yourself in better company at one of the BCG alumni firms who have chosen not to accept the compromises of scale. Consider Bain or one of the smaller splinter firms.
