Anyone from Boston Consulting Group Boston Consulting Group (BCG) working in non-consulting - Technology/Engineering/Global Services?

How's the work life balance? Glassdoor reviews are full of "long working hours" and hence wanted to know if it's the same with non-consulting folks as well? How far is it true across the organisation?

Please help me shed some light to decide.
Thanks.

I’m BST (essentially what we call (most) non consulting team) and I love my job and team. Work life balance is totally fine so far, salary is extremely competitive for my level/experience, and the benefits are literally the best in class. Cannot fathom better benefits anywhere else in the US.

I’m not in tech though.

In tech at BCG, work life balance & hybrid work is great. Also can second the salary was very competitive. Add in the benefits and there was no close second.

Hello! I joined a company in the UK 6 months ago, and received a £20,000 gross sign on bonus - clause associated to this however was that I stay for a minimum of 12 months. Unfortunately, the role is really proving to be the wrong fit, and I am looking to leave.

Question for you all - if I resign, I assume I would be expected to pay back the sign on bonus despite me only receiving approx 12k after tax. Anyone know the process for a tax clawback for something like this? Thanks in advance!
