Bain Nordics are great!

I’d say we are all broadly comparable in terms of WLB. We communicate 55h as a long term target, but while on case work you can assume you will be working 58-62h. Sometimes longer, rarely less hours during full work weeks.

We often eat dinner together when working from the office, and typically also have sit down lunches as well.

The hours include case travel, as some of our cases are staffed with cross Nordic teams.

I guess it goes without saying, but we are good with you no matter your ethnicity or whatever. All of the offices skew heavily white, but that’s a derivative of the countries and not the local office culture.
