      Pros

      - Best opportunity to work on "pure" strategy cases (especially growth strategy) - Customized approach to each project / client keeps work fresh and interesting - Management trust and high expectations from the start helped me develop quickly - Innovative / breakthrough approach to balancing work-life (led to an HBS-published case) - Wonderful international work opportunities

      Cons

      High business growth, mixed with our customized approach, means little time to sit back and take a rest Internal knowledge sharing leads to great international conversations, but could be made more efficient

      Pros

      Education on AI Fluency and access to the latest LLM models. My immediate team who energizes me.

      Cons

      BCG isn't what it used to be. Former CEO Rich Lesser cared about Innovation about deep IP and expertise, truly about unlocking the human potential that powers us. Current CEO and leadership trickles down commercialization message, everything is about metrics, what's the business impact, how many cases did this work touch, what is the trend. Often times appearing shortsighted. Lots of politics, lots of words, limited action from PA leadership, largely because they are unable to make a decision, going back and forth on priorities; Every MDP wanting to own something, with too many chefs in the kitchen, and not enough true clarity. Incentive metrics are broken, and asked to do more, An innovation unit is not recognized.
