Hi all
I joined BCG in a developing market ~15 months ago and I am not having a great time. I have been performing fine on the job, but I am not impressed with:
- Content on cases
- Variety of cases on offer
- Sophistication of clients
- The lack of quality leaders
- Tackling of COVID scenario (leadership has openly admitted that in order to maintain their pyramid structure, they will be enforcing "stricter performance management" i.e., firing people without good cause, but, making it appear as if though dismissals are performance-related (A close friend was recently fired for completely garbage reasons)
I wanted to know:
- How common transfers are from one MBB firm to another (even across geographies)?
- How to create a story to explain the motivations for this move?
- What is the likelihood of this happening right now? (I am looking to transfer home to London)
Thanks all
SIdi, was there a change in culture between BCG and McK? And since you have worked in both firms, which firm's culture were you able to relate to more and why?
Feel free to reach out if you want to elaborate on this. This is far too much for a Q&A comment I'm afraid.
