Pros

Free lunch at the office and free health insurance

Cons

Con artist MDPs self-claimed CEOs, doing PPT strategy consulting to the client using MBA buddies back door relationships. Not a single person knows what they are talking about digital transformation except they can make 2nd class PPT presentation. They hired me to a subsidiary called Platinion to teach MBA guys about digital technologies but it didn't go well and ended up in court.

Pros

- Flexible WFH (50% remote work) - Great healthcare benefits (literally costs you nothing) - Lots of holidays off - Generous (by US standards) vacation package (3 weeks) - Unlimited PTO - Pleasant/Fun company culture, lots of events to attend - You have autonomy on your day-day, as long as you get the job done you can manage your own time (no mirco-mangers)

Cons

- Pay is way below average for Administrative assistants in the area - There is not much of a bonus package, you will likely not get close to what they quote you in the offer letter

Pros

BCG is one of the best companies I have ever worked at (and probably will be over the course of my career!). The company has strong values that they truly live everyday in terms of doing the right thing for their clients and people. The people are smart yet humble, and truly care about each other. The culture is inclusive, fun and global. They offer amazing, best-in-class benefits and mobility options.

Cons

While BCG has very competitive and generous salaries for consulting staff, they do not pay well for non-client facing roles such as HR, recruiting, marketing, finance, etc. There is a significant gap here in terms of years of experience for roles they are hiring for and what they are willing to pay; which often gets outweighed by the amazing benefits and flexibility they offer (especially by women who have or are trying to have a family).
