Good Organization, IT function needs rework

Indeed featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed
Overall a good place to work, some really good exceptional ex consultants to work with - GS IT is frankly mismanaged, siloed, limited opportunities, look elsewhere if you want growth

It's not easy to work in BCG. if work more than 2 years you have survived in organisation.

It's good to be a part to BCG, but work culture and environment wiring BCG is not at all as good as other consulting cohort.There is no such opportunities to to grow and have good career in BCG.

Pros

Offsite, snacks all time in office, lunch and dinner, godies and team event

Cons

Too much judgement, bias, favouritism, toxic environment, fight for leaves and work from home

Average place to work but politics involves

BCG is good place to work and learn but work like balance isn't good and design studios have lot of dirty politics. No respect or feedback are given properly.

Excellent workplace

I enjoyed my time consulting with BCG! The work culture is respectful and collaborative. Everyone follows McGregor's Theory Y style of management where all stakeholders are cherished and valued.

Pros

Awesome food!

A workplace where I feel respected and heard

No two days are similar for me at work which keeps the excitement about coming to work on. The leadership here leads by example even in the hardest of times. We are always taken care of, made comfortable so that we can bring our best at work.The hardest part for me initially was bringing myself out of shell and network! But I love it now! I am never the smartest person in the room! There is always something to learn from the others

Pros

Culture, leadership, benefits

Cons

Work life balance sometimes

Collaborative, Engaging, full of learning and Fun

A day in BCG is full of collaboration, engagement with stakeholders, scoping, execution, delivery and fun (Games, foods etc.). It is a fast-paced environment; however, there are enough growth opportunities. They work on leading transactions in their domain, so great work experience to have up your sleeve

It's a great company to work with

Excellent platform for professional and monetarily growth. Great team and the Leadership team is extremely supportive. However, there are few managerial level people who play their office politics but overall it's a great company to be associated with.

Pros

Competitive pay Excellent HR policies Job Security Amazing higher management - partners and MDPs

Cons

Team politics, Some people work not as per company norms, and give preference to higher designated staff.

Good experience of world class MNC

It gave a goo insight into the world and working of a world class company and how it operates at the global market. It gave a great oppurtunity to collaborate with lots of smart people and the culture is highly employee centric where people are being very supportive of your goals and career path. However the problem i saw was, people are way too intimidated by the benefits company provides which somehow in the long run tend to make people slow-paced and less competitive.

Rigorous work culture

Fast paced, demands too much commitment, collaborative team, value driven assignments, analytical skills required. You have to be creative and push your limits

Virtual Experience @ BCG

I got in touch with the Virtual Experience Program offered by Boston Consulting Group through an open access platform InsideSherpa. A real-life business problem was given divided into 5 modules namely Market Research, Data Analysis, Understanding Consumer needs, Client Recommendation and Stakeholder management.

Productive and fun workplace

Amazing company to work with, a little imbalance in work-life, tons of travel, but definitely a steep learning curve. A really good place to learn. You will find some of the most amazing people you have ever known here. Really supportive environment
