Bain better, as Partner comp is tied to team WLB. I’d assume BCG and McK WLB is similar. Anecdotal, but teams with larger proportion of seniors from certain countries (e.g. Lebanon, Germany, Italy, Spain) will likely have worse WLB

Bain better cause of the implosion years ago, likely not better anymore though given the shedding of FTEs and market environment.

Would say its highly practice dependent. Even BCG has some folks that give a s### but they are rare and market conditions make it the easiest ever for leadership not to invest because FTE supply >>> demand for the first time ever really

BCG

funny

I’ve heard WLB and that geo do not go together regardless of where you work

All terrible WLB, but Bain i heard is much better than the others

I applied to B schools and while I got into a school I'm very happy with, another school that was my #1 rejected me outright when I felt I had a great shot. Furthermore, that school was close to both my and my wife's families. So despite the school im attending being better for my career, I can't help but feel that I've let my wife and both of our families down.

This is really starting to eat at me, to the point of having nightmares and waking up anxious. Any tips on how to get over this?...
