They are a bunch of contractors (quants, PMs etc) sitting in the BCG building and run by two clowns. Interviewed with them at one point - they weren’t interested in recruiting, but were trying to get market intel during the interview. Don’t think they are anywhere close to BCG by way of perception, prestige etc.

BCGs way of going downstream. Like McKinsey BTO but a little bit further into architecture and project execution management.

Solid people. Brand is not anywhere near typical BCG though.

M1 probably has it wrong. Doubtful we’d interview people to get intel it would be a waste of time.
Platinion helps us enrich projects where we need some hard core tech expertise. They’re good, but very different from BCG type of work
