BCG 🐠,

Knowledge analyst position any good? Recently contacted by a recruiter on it. Wondering if there is any stigma, if the work is good, etc.

Agreed it is definitely a supporting role and a lot less respected since it’s not client-facing, but I also recognize some people are looking for a supporting role / don’t care that it’s a supporting role because they have other priorities.

I think most client-facing folks try to be nice to the knowledge team (my teams are always respectful, thank them for their effort even if the work is below expectations, respect pushback, etc), but there are always bad eggs and/or times when you haven’t slept and tensions are high etc. Just want to share another perspective.

Weird for me to comment on a post from ~2 years. Just wanted to say thank for the both of you. Ended up betting on myself, rejecting, recruiting for CT, and now I work as CT in BCG NAMR (my title in this post not withstanding).

Small moment that the advice we give on fishbowl actually does make a difference sometimes. šŸ™

Hello Fishes,

I have got my L2 Dependent Visa stamped for the US through the Wife's organization and she has booked the tickets for the both of us in the next weekend. I am currently unallocated in TCS and seeking projects in the same US location as my Wife. Can I travel to the US just like that and then continue my search within TCS from there or do I need any approvals to even fly in the first place?

I am worried because of the time crunch and will be glad to hear some points on this.
