Bain & Company What is the culture like at Bain & Company ? Is it generally supportive/collaborative or more of a competitive/cut-throat vibe? I realize it’s somewhat dependent on case team

Super collaborative. In generally every instance. I’ve been at Bain for 5+ years and can count on less than one hand the number of instances I’ve seen competitive behavior.

^^ I’ll re-emphasize what B1 said - I don’t think that someone who was cut throat would last. I think that anyone who could/would cause a culture issue would be forced out. Everyone is incredibly supportive and collaborative

Agree with all the comments here. It’s way more collaborative than it’s at ours. I believed a good number of MDPs at our place won’t last at Bain if what b2 says is true

Hi All. What is the best way to allocate 25 Lakh INR in savings into different investments to maximize returns. I recently moved out of India so Tax rebate is not a consideration for me.

I also have an education loan with balance of 7 lakhs which I am planning to repay in lumpsum as there is no tax exemption now.
