Interesting work, but siloed and disparate offices, lack of accountability, and luck-based professional growth. - Anonymous employee BRG Employee Review

Pros

Smart people, different and interesting projects (no boring routine), chance to own analysis pieces.

Cons

When there is a client deadline, work/life balance dissolves entirely - this is largely an industry complaint, though. Professional growth is not promoted by the firm. The lifespan here is a few years and out if you start at the bottom. Management, in my experience, has not been internally grown even a single time. Advancement depends entirely on external circumstances such as which city you work in (access to bigger markets or big players), your managers/group and their workflow/business development practices, and the work volume in the group's pipeline. The firm itself doesn't seem to do much more than provide an HR/Admin/BD skeleton. A franchise model with experts peppering the country (and globe), running their own groups the way they see fit.

Pros

Learn from really smart people on interesting projects. Standard of quality is very high - most of the work product ultimately ends up in front of courts or regulators. Lots of opportunity for development and working in different groups.

Cons

Usually engaged by law firms on behalf of clients.
