@Bain people, have consistently been hearing good things about Bain culture, why do you think that is?
To put it another way, what in your view is the company doing right that sets it apart from e.g., BCG and McK?
PS: Fully understand that the COVID situation has mooted a big part of the culture aspect for the time being.

Lol, Bain isn’t diverse at all . I don’t think they are at the same level with McK and BCG.

Depends on the office. Like, Bain’s southern offices... don’t have that reputation

That’s not the worst proxy! In general, would say that NYC/BOS/SF/CHI are all comparably large, with offices like ATL/TX/LA being medium sized and DC/SEA smaller but fast growing

My company covers in depth results each week, including meetings set/attended, wins, revenue, retention etc. I feel as if evaluating in such depth is detrimental to the psyche, as you never get to “ride the high.” In addition, some weeks are simply slower than others, and it’s not always representative of what the results at the end of the period or quarter will be. Is this not a big deal, and I’m I placing too much importance on it? Or is it beneficial to review results less frequently?
