Pros

Fun and very smart people - everybody is an "A" player. Excellent pay and benefits Flexibility around transfers, sabbatical time off, maternity, etc. Beautiful offices Chance to work with very senior clients intimately

Cons

Very rigid roles - partner does the client relationship, manager does the thinking, CTL makes the workplan, then the worker bees execute. You don't have time to become a real expert in the industry, the company or the problem, so the solutions are often formulaic - a reproduction of the same frameworks.

Great culture, a lot of smart individuals who are very motivated. The hours can be long but they compensate you accordingly.

Long Hours, Some people are very arrogant. Hard to move up the corporate ladder because of size. People are mostly friendly though.

Pros

The people are fun and social. It is a good environment to make friends with coworkers and learn how to balance social/professional relationships.

Cons

Bain has changed its case model to reflect longer, relationship style cases. This is not valuable for it's pre-manager employees as it limits variety of experience.
