Pros

BCG Brand Free and Good Food Training, Parties and Vacations in 5 Star hotels

Cons

Would have rated Negative if there was a rating. Long list of Cons actually - 1. Favouritism - If you spend most of your time talking to managers who like to get their empty egos massaged you'll get good projects and on-site opportunities- and promotions. 2. No work life balance- You can be asked to work from home on your vacations as things are almost always on fire and all things are due yesterday. 3. Work from home - They claim to be very employee friendly but frown and harras every time you want to WFH-unless you are on pre-informed pre-approved leave. 4. Over time: No matter how late you stayed in office for a case - you have to leave yourself for home be it 2 am at night- no concern for women's safety. 5. Lying Upper Management- I have seen upper management openly lying to freshers about kind of exposure, benefits and expected hike you'll get. 6. Mental Harassment & Toxic work environment - Hostile work environment for someone who wants to only succeed by good work and client feedback - 7. Verbal Abuse - Many times the senior most manager has been known to abuse people even in Hindi Language although that never happened to me.

Pros

Free food Stay at good properties Events which you would never be able to enjoy because of the kind of culture the seniors maintain

Cons

There are only cons. All I can say please please don't spoil your career by joining the HR team in this organization. You would regret it. HR managers do not even know the H of HR. Extremely insensitive and political set of arrogant people. The problem in the team is that there is little quality of work and everyone is fighting to get that share of work especially the incompetent managers in the system. There is alot of time with them to design political dirty strategies for people rather than concentrating on the little work they have and to add value.
