Pros

The company provides excellent benefits, effective career growth planning, and a good work-life balance. Salaries are particularly competitive, even for those living outside of greater São Paulo and working in a hybrid format, taking into account travel and accommodation expenses for office days. The office is well-equipped with various amenities and dining options, alongside high-quality equipment. Employees have access to high-quality training courses and other educational platforms. Additionally, the company offers opportunities for professional development through courses and business trips abroad.

Cons

While the company's diversity and inclusion initiatives are commendable and generally outperform those at other firms, the level of support and focus can vary by cohort. Additionally, certain projects could benefit from leadership with more comprehensive experience in both business and IT/digital solutions, and might improve by adopting a structured organizational methodology, like Agile.

Pros

BCG has top tier benefits, really smart colleagues, good in-office perks, and has a great company reputation. This was a huge part of my experience and has made me go back forth about my decision to leave.

Cons

This is speaking as someone who is not on the consulting side. On my particular team, office politics were very strong with little to no opportunities for people outside of the inner circle to assimilate. More broadly, I feel like the salary trajectory was a little slow, there is a lack of location mobility and and promotions can be hard to come by. Even so, I have personally seen exceptions be made for certain people. More broadly, being located in North America can be difficult since new roles are being open in other regions which is making internal mobility next to impossible. If you have any dissatisfaction with your current team, title, or level - there's a real possibility that you will have to wait multiple years before being able to make meaningful shifts towards your long term career goals.
