Am being recruited for a CDM role at BCG. Thoughts / insights from my BCG 🐠? Looking to make the way into industry (get off the road). How is the role viewed within the firm, comp, career progression?

Sorry for the piecemeal responses but I think you should take it. Benefits throughout BCG are the same, compensation for internal roles are at the top of industry ranges, the work life balance will be great, and you'll get to work with amazing people. Can't speak much for career progression since it's a new unit but no position at BCG is without a progression track so I'd ask your recruiter for what your track looks like; I'm sure they'll be happy to give you that info.

I think he means Career Development Manager?

Yes, career development manager. Thank you!

If so, then BCG is heavily investing in career coaches but the unit is pretty new. It's an outcome of our People Survey for last year. We're looking forward to the unit - should be pretty exciting stuff!

My mistake - Client dev, not career dev. Seems like goal of one stop shop for partners and clients for an account

Thanks BCG 2 for the insights on benefits/comp/lifestyle

Does that mean the role is more focused on sales vs delivering? If so then sounds more like a gather vs hunter style of selling...

Hi, I have approx 9 years of experience and given 3rd round of interview which was director round in last week for Senior Software Engineer position. I went well and he mentioned that feedback is good, they will match CTC of 37 LPA which is offered by other organization and also give good number of RSU's.

I wanted to know following things:

How much time they take after director round for further process?
How much RSU's I can expect and how's its value is calculated in qualys?

Through a lot of comp discussions I heard a lot of talk of “making you whole” when things get better. Am I drinking the kool-aid by believing this? Is this just meant to prevent further questions that the firm does not know the answer to?

I realized I've been a dummy for getting a job at a creative agency and not working on my portfolio. Most of the projects I've taken on, I've done so as a way to support others without taking much credit for it. Now, a better opportunity came along and I don't have anything to show for my talent as a designer. ALWAYS take credit for what you do, even if it's not your project to begin with.
