How prevelant is a 40hr/week cap at Booz Allen, specifically for a junior management consultant (1-3 years prior experience)? Thinking of applying there but I place a lot of importance on my free time. If not Booz, do you know any firms that have a pretty much guarenteed 40hr week?

40hrs seems to be the norm in Deloitte GPS

Disagree! Totally depends

Consultant level do have 40hr/cap OT eligible… at least as of a few years ago. A current employee can probably confirm. My WLB was fantastic… but this is project/team dependent at almost every firm…

Grant Thornton Pub Sec is chill. I personally got bored of it, but you will have plenty of WLB

40hr cap is firmwide at Booz for C level. After that, 40hr is still pretty standard; you may only have to work outside of that on occasion.
At C, exceeding 40hr has to be approved by your contract. Most people don’t want to be bothered by that.

I’ve been at the firm for about 3 years (college hire). I have literally never worked over a 40 hr week
