      Pros

      The benefits are pretty much unmatched at this level. You never have to worry if you're getting a competitive salary, top line health insurance, and other perks. Really a great place in that regard.

      Cons

      In the past two years there has been a decaying culture. At first the boom of the COVID market meant BCG over hired to meet demand, then the past year has been characterized by "silent layoffs" in which people are let go due to poor business but are told they're being let go due to performance. Everyone who is left has clung to their pyramids and cast others aside. The mentorship culture that used to be present is largely gone and I don't recognize the company I joined. I'm looking to leave.

      Pros

      Education on AI Fluency and access to the latest LLM models. My immediate team who energizes me.

      Cons

      BCG isn't what it used to be. Former CEO Rich Lesser cared about Innovation about deep IP and expertise, truly about unlocking the human potential that powers us. Current CEO and leadership trickles down commercialization message, everything is about metrics, what's the business impact, how many cases did this work touch, what is the trend. Often times appearing shortsighted. Lots of politics, lots of words, limited action from PA leadership, largely because they are unable to make a decision, going back and forth on priorities; Every MDP wanting to own something, with too many chefs in the kitchen, and not enough true clarity. Incentive metrics are broken, and asked to do more, An innovation unit is not recognized.
