Pros

Work with amazing colleagues on challenging business problems with top-tier clients Professional development - build skills that will set the foundation for a long-term career in business, non-profit, government/politics, or academia Strong corporate culture best characterized as collegial, altrusitic, and supportive/collaborative Salary and benefits set the standard in the industry Work with a truly exceptional company - a firm that treats its employees with respect and delivers great value to its clients BCG provides opportunities to work in corporate and non-profit work

Cons

Work/life balance is tough in management consulting with somewhat frequent travel and time spent working with clients - - - though BCG does a great job of trying to alleviate that, within reason Real personal growth involves some discomfort as you stretch beyond your comfort zone - if you can't handle that, this job will be tough for you.

Pros

1. Unbelievable experience advising companies on the most important strategic issues 2. Incredibly smart and motivated colleagues who continually challenge you intellectually 3. Fun and personable culture, hard working but not cut throat 4. Focus on creativity and finding new answers to client problems that will truly drive impact 5. Personally, I think the Philadelphia office (and partners) are amazing

Cons

1. As with any consulting firm, hours and travel can be hard some weeks. Especially Monday through Thursday your life is pretty work focused 2. For certain projects, it can seem like you undertake endless iterations on the same client materials 3. Some clients are not as nice as others
