Whats it like being a Knowledge Analyst at BCG? Looks like a back office role. Pay? Exits?

Pay is sub par, but the exits can be good just from having BCG on your resume. Your experience could vary heavily depending on which team you're on, but you'll almost certainly be treated like a second or third class citizen.

Eyeing the same role lol

I just looked up what others are saying on fishbowl and it sounds like a downgrade from T2 client facing strategy. Thought it might be worthwhile for better wlb/no travel, but sounds like the role isn’t really respected internally and the pay/career trajectory reflects that.

Sounds like second fiddle to consultants

Yep, will say that the pay is subpar. But I’ve seen Knowledge Analysts get the exact same exits as consulting staff.

That’s because people see BCG and assume the role is client is facing.

Internally, I would say they receive zero respect from CT staff.

Hi guys,

I switched 20 days back to Optum. I have 7 years of experience working as a full stack Engineer, who is passionate working on both front end and back end on latest technologies.
