Bain is significantly behind McKinsey and BCG comp. Our “advantage” on culture does not satisfy the gap. I hate to say it, but given lack of leadership communication on the gap in our pay, I’m forced to say: Bain is tier 2; BCG and McKinsey are tier 1. I wish I had chosen a different firm. One that pays me what I’m worth.

Damn. Could i commit to taking the language class?

"Pays you what you are worth" <-- the market always pays you what you are worth, sir/madam. It not them, its you. Dont like it? Move.....

I thought the profit sharing makes up the difference and some more.

Free 10% of your total cash comp is nothing to sneeze at
