What’s the BCG NYC office like? (WLB, culture, travel, benefits)

WLB and benefits not really determined by office. Benefits are the same as all offices and your case, client, case team, and ability to say no will determine WLB

NYC has more ability to work locally due to larger volume of local clients (HC, PIPE, FI, etc), but you can find cases that travel weekly or bi weekly if you want

NYC is a big office with no single culture. It's possibly the most diverse office as it pulls in BCGers from all over the globe. There's a skew toward a younger, more social crowd vs other offices

NYC but both are large

Favorite perk is the free Joe’s Coffee bar, and amazing view of downtown
