You will need to work very hard at this company. You will advance if you work hard, and if you only do the bare minimum, then you will be out of the company fast. They give very honest feedback at this firm, which is great because you really do improve professionally and personally. Work at this company only if you are prepared to make work your number one priority.

I had really high expectations walking into the firm. Even though everyone I met is impressive, I got a feeling that people in the company value the company more than the actual people. I think this is good for the company (a company first mentality), but I think ultimately it was not a good fit for me. I felt lost in the crowd and never found a way to truly stand out.

BCG is a strong company and the future of the company is looking very bright. I am constantly staffed on fun projects with very large, well-known companies. When you get on board with this company, know that they will work you very hard; however, the experience is well worth it. You can also feel confident about your job security - as long as you are performing well that is.

This is truly a great place to work. Dress is business casual at the office (business professional when meeting a client) and absolutely everyone is friendly and welcoming. BCG takes great pride in its client interaction, business solutions, recruitment, and its people. You will gain valuable experience (personally and professionally) and you will be well respected wherever you go after BCG.

I like BCG because we truly develop strategies and solutions that the companies can take action on. Most other strategy consulting firms deal with theory only; we go into the field, collect primary data, analyze, and then go the the management to tell them what they need to do. Our recommendation are much more valuable because we actually get to get our hands dirty with our work.
