PTO in BCG has a very different meaning lol -
Mostly a call for help 😂

likefunny

PTO for BCG is 15 days post-MBA and then jumps to 20 at the PL and above level. We officially get around 12 holidays, but over the last two years that’s going to be closer to 20 because of all the bonus days (e.g., having the entire week off from Christmas to NYE).

19 for first two years, then 24 after.

But we’re forced to use 3 for office closure over the holidays

Hi everyone,
I passed my PMP thanks to this sub group.
I have passed Above Target in the People section, and T in the other sections.
It was 95% situational questions.
Thave used AR's mock exams, and used my wrong answers to figure out my weakness and where I truly stand. I didn't purchase AR's course, just the mock exam simulator.
The 200 agile questions by David McLachlan were amazing, it really helped me in adapting to an agile mindset. TIA simulator n Joseph Phillip is useful.

Any thoughts on whether I should proceed with the request? I just came from big law and want to make sure I’m not making a bad impression on my colleagues.
