Just to be clear: all BCG comp and benefits are completely standardized by role so there is no room for negotiation. That said, we have multiple options for taking unpaid leave where you can maintain benefits and employment. And as other have said, you can go negative balance on vacation. Vacation days will increase as you are promoted.

Relocation is also negotiable. There’s also “Time for You” where you can take two extra months off per year and you get paid 10/12 of what you’d otherwise get paid throughout the year. You get full benefits though.

Nope - but you can go negative vacation days.

Sure try to negotiate a 2-3 week unpaid leave now for you wedding and honeymoon. More likely they approve that than change their PTO policy for you...

lol we don’t negotiate on our offers if you’re a CT - everything is very standardized (once you join, you’ll be able to see vacation and comp by each level)

Hey Boschlers,

What questions would you ask a recruiter when discussing benefits? What’s important?

How does a person change their mindset to be more positive? I feel like I’m meant for my job, but blame all my life problems on it….having no energy, being single at the age of 30, etc. and it seems like a never ending loop. I look for new jobs, realize I have a good job then am ok for a bit then start it all over again. When I’m off of work I’m fine and realize I have it pretty good. Only real negative is I can’t vacation with my family in March due to my busy time.
