Considering move from Accenture Strategy to BCG Digital Ventures. How is comp, work life balance, exits, etc. at BCGDV? Worth the jump? How does BCGDV compare to / fit in with larger BCG?

I am part of “classic BCG” but do cross over staffing with BCGDV - feel free to DM me - in short, i LOVE DV work compared to my usual BCG projects (which is also very cool) . Their projects can be quite different but equally as interesting if you are interested in incubation, developing business cases for new products, growth strat, and piloting new programs.

Cool - yeah that’s basically the role a “BCG generalist” consultant would fill on the DV side. I think it’s an amazing role. But there are definitely differences to the role compared to a generalist BCGer - DM if you need more details

Is Digital Ventures same thing as BCG Digital? Assuming it is.. had a recruiter reach out two weeks ago but there doesn’t seem to be much intel in BCG Digital. Based on P1s response seems like there’s some unresolved issues

Gotta love it when people in your own firm (BCG) call your team "mediocre" (Platinion person here) and labels their own group, often comprised of many non-tech people who don't always understand tech, as "quite good" 🤦‍♂️, despite us bolstering BCG's credibility in these conversations with CxOs with real experience, and thinking end-to-end.

Thanks for perpetuating the 2nd class citizen syndrome @P1. Would love to understand why you find our group so mediocre, when we're single-handedly responsible for winning all this downstream tech/product/platform work.

💲For those who DON'T think a six figure salary is possible:

👉Just ask for it. Really, you would be surprised. Might be easier to switch to a new company and ask. I did that 3 years into my career.

And 🛑 wasting your time at a company that under-values you severely. Sometimes switching companies every 2 years or so will allow you to keep raising the bar for yourself.
