I have an interview upcoming with BCG and have seen in this bowl that they are hiring quite a bit. I’m just curious — what kinds of cases are they selling? What’s driving their growth lately?

I think attrition is driving their need for recruiting more than actual case work

Can confirm massive attrition at “the group” - higher than usual voluntary (due to cultural issues) and massive cuts they did last year during the pandemic. As a result, teams are burning hot - same scope but vastly under-resourced - driving the need to hire.

All of our practice areas were sold out. It’s not anyone area

A need for new hires is driven by both labor supply and project demand.

My understanding is that it's more of a supply issue (combination of attrition, under hiring during COVID, etc.)

Since this job title does not exist at BCG I am suspect of your information.

When did you apply? And did you have a referral? Applied a couple days ago and want to guage how long to wait before losing hope

Business is up. We are continuing to grow in all PAs. Attrition is not up— it’s at completely normal levels based on what we would expect looking at historic attrition. But, people supply is down because we didn’t hire anybody at all last year. Combine that with growing business and you have both a supply- and demand-driven problem.

Attrition is not above normal levels. It’s the same as it’s always been - which is high for a normal company but standard in an up or out model. Hard truth but there it is. We are growing revenue at a very fast rate - and so we’re hiring to support that growth. Anyone who tells you this is attrition driven is mistaken. There’s elevated attrition in spots (for example where Google and the like are picking off more of our people than usual) but it’s non systemic.
