I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.
Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.
JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?

McKinsey the worst. Just saying. Most toxic culture I've ever experienced from humans outside of corrupt Africa.
They do a lot of work for corrupt African governments too though
Have worked at both McK and BCG and have found BCGers to be less authentic than McK. At mck everyone was always open and genuine even if the truth hurt, but at BCG people support you and then screw your in reviews and staffing
Worked for 2, declines offer from the third. Ended up at BCG I actually found Bain to be the most asshole, McK was pretentious and a bit smug... they annoyed me in the same way as hanging out with vegans does. They know everything and are so much more zen and together than you can possibly hope to be
Yes. Have worked for two of the three and interviewed at third.
I’ve only been at BCG and I’ve found the culture to be generally very good and that most people are very pleasant. The downside is sometimes we’re not as straightforward with hard messages but there’s tradeoffs I suppose
I echo the point around people not being straightforward here. I almost want to work with assholes that are a bit more genuine
It’s going to depend by office and by the people within each office, though generalizations may hold. I’d say that Bain’s culture has been nothing but supportive and transparent; I’m continually struck by how genuinely helpful and compassionate people are here - both to folks outside of the firm and those within. But I’m just one data point and there are great and bad apples in any org 🔥
Having worked with all of MBB on various projects, I found BCG to be the best to work with. It was collaborative, focused on client success and everyone was genuinely nice. Made me really wish I worked there but it’s a bit late now.
Backstabbing is far too strong a way to read it - we’re just bad at being direct with hard messages which means (and this is on the margins) sometimes people are surprised when they get counseled out or don’t get promoted on time etc. it’s why we need the robust career development council process that we have to force the tough conversations
Yes
I once ran into BCG on a client in Boston. I was working in an office that the CFO’s admin had assigned me.
Out of nowhere, a small team comes storming in and tells me it’s their meeting room. Being new to the client and not knowing they were consultants, I left. As I was leaving, someone mentioned, “we’re BCG.”
Agree with BCG2 and 3...
Was not expecting that BCG had a backstabbing culture wow
