You are not going to be rich and famous working in Strat and Ops at Google. You could however become rich and famous from helping grow a huge startup or starting your own. I personally think BCG will give you more opportunities in the long run to do this

but isn’t the total compensation of $200k after 1+ years at BCG kinda worth it? i don’t think googles pay bump is as steep

Could you break down the comp for both? I don’t see how BCG is paying on par w/ Google.

like

Yes 130k base and 150 is estimated total comp

If you get to PL2 and exit to google you’ll save some years off joining google direct.

isn't your comp growth going to be similar at S& with similar wlb?

BCG can make you richer but that’s contingent on your staying long enough.

Google can make you sufficiently rich and will be easier to stay put.

You’re barking up the wrong tree if you’re looking to get famous working at BCG or Google. As an example, artists in a random sitcom tend to be more popular than F500 CXOs.

Bonus: Google WLB might give you more time to tinker with startup ideas on the side so you can take a shot at the rich and famous bit.
