Pros

Really great people. I always feel inspired at Bain and get great proffessional development opportunities. We also get a lot of responsibility

Cons

Work life balance can be an issue. Hard to know how tough a given week will be in advance so making social plan can be challenging.

Cons

Cons include: Managment will still always put the clients' needs above your needs for work/life balance or professional development; Work experience, hours and team can differ hugely from case to case; Lack of visibility into travel and work schedules

Pros

You get to work with clients from a wide range of industries on their most important issues. People are generally smart and driven. The culture is supportive; case teams work together to solve client problems and help one another, with very little politicking within the firm. Great global training programs where consultants from all over the world are brought together in one location for milestone training programs. Career progression can be fast - if you measure up.

Cons

Hours can be long and travel taxing. Very focused on producing results for clients, which can lead to stress and pressure on consultants.
