Hi everyone! I’m looking for someone to refer me for the role of a consultant, experienced hire at Boston Consulting Group, Toronto office. (Background: Currently at 4 years with Cibc, at a sr manager business mgmnt role within IR, a non-mba grad from UofT) Would be happy to chat about my background further, if needed! Thanks! (Ps. I know I don’t have an MBA or an Ivy League degree, but I’d still try my luck :) - being positive goes a long way)

Is BCG hiring right now?

Is Bain Toronto hiring ? Don’t think so.

I’m going to be honest. If you have the optionality of choosing between multiple firms I would not recommend BCG.

The ruthless PIPs in 2023/2024 is a good start. Add to the fact they don’t keep performance reviews confidential despite claiming to do so. Even if you are put on a PIP because of bill-ability, which was out of a lot of peoples control

Today I learned a new thing. One candidate was referred by a colleague of mine in the system. He got selected and offer letter rolled out.

When he checked the system he realized the referral was not taken and the background system captured it as direct hire.

So my friend is not going to get any referral incentive.

Wondering if anyone else faced the same issue?
