Anyone from BCG care to share insight into the Knowledge Teams at BCG? Was reached out to regarding a SKA role on a knowledge team. I have a tech consultant background. How’s the work? Comp? General thoughts?

Can't say this strongly enough: Don't do it!

You're treated as a second class citizen at best, comp at the SKA level is below the entry level Associate comp on the consulting side, and career development is quite slow.

Seems like the best benefit is just the brand name on the resume. Definitely underpaid and seems like the SKA roles can also have tough hours at times.

I think everyone at BCG has tough hours.

Any other hiring managers feeling like all of your candidates are asking for more money last minute just to see how far they can go? Like if we say the range is 110-130K, they say they’re looking for 135K, you offer 135K and then they say they won’t take the job for less than 150? Not even with competing offers. It’s hard for me to stay excited about wanting to work with someone when they do that. What a waste of everyone’s time.

So, recently got phished while staying at Marriott Peachtree Hotel in ATL. Received call to my room at 12:30 am from the “GM” who knew my name (and room number obviously). Didn’t feel right and the night manager said the GM called and told him I would likely come down upset. He then said the issue was resolved and dismissed the situation. Sure enough, it was fraud and charges began to come in. I received 105k points but feel it should be more. What amount of points have you received and what’s?
