Hey folks,

Need some input!
Current CTC - 14.3

I have an offer of 25lpa with Boston consulting group (BCG)
And 22.5 lpa with AthenaHealth.

CTS is giving 50% hike (21.5 lpa) to retain. But I don't think I will opt for it.

Yoe : 8
Tech stack : Java Fullstack Developer.

Which among BCG or athena is better in terms of wlb, perks and career growth.

TIA

Which location has BCG hired you for? I cannot say much about technical roles in BCG but it is a different league altogether. It's a brand which will make your profile premium in future.

Yes the brand name of BCG is surely soemthing to behold off. But just want to know about the tech growth in it.
Location : Bangalore

Contrary to the popular opinion yet on this thread, I don't think BCG would be a right choice, given that OP is in the Tech field.
BCG would be great for management consulting. But for Tech, tech firms are going to be a much better fit in terms of Quality of work, WLB, Pay, Career Progression, Learnings, Future value, etc.

I don't think BCG (or any such non tech firm) will be able to even come close in all these aspects.

Athenahealth is product based company so if you are more in technical stuffs can give it a chance. Else BCG is very good and will give a good for your resume and career progression
