Pros

Great collaborative culture and fun place to work. Don't need to deal with a lot of the toxic culture that I hear about from other friends workplaces. Balanced with a good focus on performance and meritocracy.

Cons

Work life balance can be lacking at times. Some of the skillsets required in the job are much better paid in adjacent industries such as finance or tech.

Pros

If you can invent it you can do it. Pockets of truly brilliant, good people doing interesting work. Can be a very creative place to work. Access to fabulous global clients. New CEO and rising leadership team offer promising future for the business and the work culture. Exceptional number of women in leadership. Queer positive environment.

Cons

Communication and feedback are rare. Partnership model creates a monoculture that makes innovation very hard. Partners have trouble listening and don’t like explaining decisions or owning failure. Few below partner level can own decisions. Strategic decisions can feel like they are what’s best for the partners not the company. A culture of managing up and kicking down and ignoring expertise. Diversity and inclusion are challenging despite prominence of women in leadership positions. Few POC. It’s a very insular culture.

Pros

You get to work on interesting projects with amazing clients. BTSers are fun, creative and incredibly supportive.

Cons

BTS acts like it's the only company in the world with a great culture. The culture is great but we tend to overplay the culture card in hopes that it will distract employees from the fact that they're being paid relatively little when compared to competitors... and way below our aspirational competitors. Senior management is always talking about how we're beating McKinsey, BCG, Bain on various proposals but when you compare what talent is being paid at BTS vs. MBB... we're getting peanuts. These peanuts translate into better earnings for BTS quarter over quarter.
