See who you vibe with best! Definitely talk to people - you'll likely notice a decent difference between the average Bain and BCG person. My personality is a much better Bain fit which is why I'm here ☺️.

Likewise for me at BCG - honestly both firms are great but personalities of people are very different - so choose who you vibe with more is the right way to go about!

Both are great would talk to friends and see where I’d fit more
