Pluspunten

These points pertain to the Design Studio, not the consulting division: Good pay, decent work life balance, great health insurance cover, 5 star hotel-like food buffet and pantries, friendly and relaxed colleagues

Minpunten

Management has no clarity of vision, keeps changing its vision on where the business needs to go and is currently on a hiring spree for executives. Although there is a hiring freeze for the actual workers. Employees who leave are not being replaced. Work life balance is worsening. Asks to complete tasks at an unreal small timeline due to lack of cleint funds. Obsession with AI reducing quality of work, becoming similar to an agency setting rather than a studio. Blatant favouritism in favour of some employees while other employees have no clarity on their future. Despite these issues, it's still the best place to work to in the current market due to a generally positive culture. Most employees feel frustration, but are afraid to leave for somewhere else.

Pluspunten

BCG has top tier benefits, really smart colleagues, good in-office perks, and has a great company reputation. This was a huge part of my experience and has made me go back forth about my decision to leave.

Minpunten

This is speaking as someone who is not on the consulting side. On my particular team, office politics were very strong with little to no opportunities for people outside of the inner circle to assimilate. More broadly, I feel like the salary trajectory was a little slow, there is a lack of location mobility and and promotions can be hard to come by. Even so, I have personally seen exceptions be made for certain people. More broadly, being located in North America can be difficult since new roles are being open in other regions which is making internal mobility next to impossible. If you have any dissatisfaction with your current team, title, or level - there's a real possibility that you will have to wait multiple years before being able to make meaningful shifts towards your long term career goals.
