Pros

Beautiful office, smart people, generous perks

Cons

My manager was very condescending to me as a new comer, constantly micromanaging, as though I was incapable of doing anything that I actually got hired for. BCG supposedly promotes free, independent thinking, but, my manager made it arrogantly clear, I needed to get feedback on everything, no matter how simple the task. All or any positive feedback from my MDP's was met with heavy skepticism. When I was invited by one of my MDPs to travel with the case team for an offsite, my manager said "Why would BCG pay for that? We don't need you there..." Followed by, something to the effect of "you're new, why would you think you can go?" I felt like my manager would find a way to sabotage any opportunity for growth that was presented to me. I didn't feel comfortable succeeding, because my success wouldn't be mutually celebrated.

Knowhow of BCG is above industry, great learnings for the team, very high client delivery work.

Also BCG works hard to optimize work-life-balance, its still a consulting company
