      Great experience, but mostly if you don't know what you really want to do

      Pros

      In my opinion the best of the big consulting firms. The partners really care about your success, you get real, meaty projects. You work with your clients rather than on them.

      Cons

      Work life balance is always going to be very tough. The travel grinds you down. And at the end of the day you might not be able to turn your consulting experience into the job you want outside BCG, because all you really know is strategy and analysis, and not how to do a "real" job.

      Pros

      Smart People Interesting Challenging Work Low on Politics Good office environment, supporting system Compensation in line with top consulting firms Great Brand

      Cons

      Work life balance is poor Traveling- is sometimes excessive Yield loss- work lost because people werent aligned or clear can be high None of these are BCG specific, you would find the same challenge in a Mck (or Bain)

      Pros

      Amazing people to work with and great support provided by the overall ecosystem to deliver on the results. Work on high impact deliverables. High work satisfaction

      Cons

      At times results are paramount and effort doesn't count. Can be stressful to drive results with hostile client environment. In general long working hours
