      Your experience is dictated by the projects you get. Get ready to roll the dice.

      Pros

      Sparking water, points, trips, Friday lunches

      Cons

      Obsession with Powerpoint, live and die by "scores." Very little interest in solving client problems, dubious analysis, dissappointd by aptitude of colleagues. Seems like art majors would do best here. First case I was told I was being "hazed" because they didn't like me and wanted me to quit. I reported this to management, and was told that I had to stick with the same team for 3 months. I would come client side at 8 AM and leave at 10 PM, whether there was work or not, I was just required to be on-site for 14 hours a day. I took a substantial pay-cut to come to BCG and they were not interested in negotiating. The firm has absolutely awful technology. Antiquated laptops that frequently break, no desktops to use for processing power, few dual monitor set-ups. This is probably the least tech friendly place I have ever worked.

      Will take your experience to the next level, but values and culture are lacking.

      Pros

      Amazing benefits. Great training. Opportunities to develop great friendships.

      Cons

      Support staff is not valued. Very little trust within the office. Base salary is lacking. Turnover is high within the EA group, and EAs are shuffled around to different consultants all the time, which never allows an EA the chance to support her/his consultant efficiently. Tons of office politics, "in-crowd" includes HR staff which is a conflict of interest.
