Know of someone that worked there, heard it’s a very very tight knit office. People are pretty close w each other and spend time on weekends together too (at least amongst the junior levels). Good culture, in other words

Bain

Why Bain to BCG? Curious!

Focus on type of work I'm more interested in.

Have heard great things about the NJ office culture. Small enough that you can get to know everyone, and people are great. I’ve worked with a few and spoke to a bunch of people during the interview process, and they all spoke of a great community feel. You should definitely reach out to meet more people and ask questions if you are still feeling it out.

Great office. Many people still live in Manhattan
