      Bain Review

      Associate consultant

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Amazing learning experiences. Lots of prestige. Sense of accomplishment when completing work. Dynamic environment, Relatively manageable lifestyle Better hours than ibanking and competitor Mckinsey Great exit opps into Private Equity, Hedge Funds and F500 companies Amazing culture led by young and driven people Focus is on implementation and data, which has delivered superior results over the year Our clients outperform their market 4 to 1

      Cons

      Long hours Smaller company, and perhaps less name recognition than McKinsey. Very quantatively driven which can become tedious at times Perhaps too much focus on PE which could limit exit opps into F500 Too much time spent on mindless-tasks and powerpoint presentations

      Great brand name company and very good for a young professional.

      Pros

      Bain & Company has a great brand name in the market. You work on some of the most high profile deals out there. But in some cases the hours can be a little daunting but the nature of the work and the pay make the job worth it. For a person straight out of any undergrad school that has an eye for business school this is one of the best places to be.

      Cons

      The hours can be challenging to deal with sometimes, but the perks definitely make the job worth it. It's a fabulous place to work when you're young.

      Great company but can do better on leadership

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Intellectual stimulation Career prospects post Bain Opportunity to work with some of the brightest and most motivated people in your geography Very good pay relative to the rest of the industry although you do have to earn it

      Cons

      Very long hours - although monitored by HR strictly - much of the stimulating work becomes tedious due to workload Very little in the way of work life balance. You have your weekends but you spent 9am to 12pm in the office Little in the way of client interaction if your office is heavily PE weighted Poorly developed leadership skills of senior consulting staff can make it difficult if you come from another environment
