McKinsey & Company Hi all,

Please help me understand how better option are McKinsey & Company McKinsey & Company (periscope) and BCG X (X) for a Data Engineer's learning and growth perspective.

And, within the two if we have to compare which one to go for?

Also, specific to McKinsey & Company what special perks do they provide. Like :

on-site opprtunities (either long-term or short term)
Learning/career education sponsorships, etc

Depends what’s your expectations from the job. I can tell you about McKinsey. I wanted to do lot of good analytics stuff. Unfortunately they are not doing any of that.
They have so called workbench which you will be using and nobody knows inside out of it. You will struggle in understanding and apparently take a route of just running the workbench do some hit and trial what can fix.
Sab fluke maar rhe hain but they will create an illusion. And people lobby a lot and groupism in periscope.
I would highly discourage in joining periscope.
Team change is also a big challenge.
Periscope big no!
Save yourself.
I wasted literally more than two years.
Leader is also weak, not a big say in projects.

No on-site opportunities
2000 dollar budget for education which 1.5L . No great course comes in that budget.

Join BCG X, better opportunity.

Bcg is better, mckz is death
