Hi all,
I am in the lucky position that I got an offer from BCG and Roland Berger in Germany.
From a payment perspective, they are both quite similar and from a people point of view, very different but I could imagine myself working in both consultancies.
Now my question to you: Which company would you rather recommend?
I see pros and cons on both
BCG
+ Bigger brand name and reputation
+ Strong international business
+ Very dynamic, young and agile work environment
- Thy seem to suffer under the current economic situation (over-staffed first half of the year and now staffing slows down)
Roland Berger
+ Big focus and expertise on restructuring, which is highly demanded this and next year
+ They seem to have momentum and are growing and have a good forecast for next years
+ I could imagine that it is easier to be visible and build up a personal reputation as a women in performance/restructuring industry
- Weaker international reputation and brand name
Would be great if you could share your point of view on both companies and also share some experience on cultural / employee benefit and appreciation aspects.
Thanks!
