Bain & Company [US-based] Looking for transparent compensation comparison. This image was floated around in the past. Full comp info for Bain and BCG. Questions: McKinsey & Company are you in-line? Bain & Company NAP seems to put you way over BCG at senior levels. Is this accurate? Does it get fully funded? Then Bain & Company and Boston Consulting Group what % of people get this bonus? And % more? How much more? Apologies if asking too much, but this helps everyone push their firms.
