Imo Biggest one is first class on flights above 90 min for any level. That’s the only one that is really unique to Bcg. Like the rest of mbb you also get incredibly good medical coverage with extremely low copays even for elective procedures like ivf, lots of opportunities for private mini Ted talks from renowned experts in your local office, and actually good slide making teams that you can farm your decks out too.

As D1 mentioned, exceptional medical benefits, great teams. Company wide efforts to make the job as predictable as possible (doesn’t always work, but people definitely make the effort). Company pension contribution moves up to 10% of salary by the Principal level, I believe.

And more importantly, the people are genuine. Managers and staffing have been extremely accommodating where they can be (speaking from experience with colleagues with health issues, family emergencies etc.) Not unheard of to take multiple months of personal / medical leave as needed.

I'm currently working as an electrical designer in the MEP industry. I really don't like it and I'm working towards a career change which I'm actively applying for and getting certified etc. However, it's been a slow process and I'm currently underpaid where I am so would it be wise to make a lateral move to another MEP firm simply because they offer me more money while I still look for a different job separate from this field? Or just tough it out?
