Bain & Company Which offices in NA are most friendly for LGBT? I am doing business school and considering applying for roles at Seattle, Boston and Dallas. The reason why I am not applying for SF/NYC is that they are way too competitive. McKinsey & Company Boston Consulting Group Bain & Company Kearney Strategy& L.E.K. Consulting

Seattle is very friendly.

like

I’ve lived in 2 of the 3 and have also spent extensive time in the PNW. All are big cities and are very friendly. I’d focus more on the lifestyle you want.

Competitiveness: Boston >> Seattle > Dallas
Outdoors: Seattle > Boston >>>>> Dallas
Walkability: Boston >> Seattle >> Dallas
Weather: depends on personal preference
Cost of living: Boston > Seattle >> Dallas

Dallas: top heavy; very purple politically (fine to be on either side); a truly ugly city; cheap, fast flights to anywhere; incredibly easy winters; very diverse
Boston: lots of tourists and students; a little pretentious socially; incredibly well educated people; not very diverse as a non-student; incredibly walkable and NYC is close
Seattle: outdoorsy to the extreme but has some of the most beautiful nature in the country; people are fairly reserved; not very diverse

Competitive offices also have higher hiring targets, sometimes it’s a hit and miss trying to target a ‘not so competitive’ office.

I’d say all the offices in these firms will be gay-friendly. The difference is the size of LGBT community in local office.

Dallas is more gay friendly than Boston by any standard

Southie is very catholic and blue collar. Have you been to Boston in the past 40 years?

You should assume Boston is quite competitive given the premiere local colleges and business schools.

I'd think Seattle is more gay friendly due to the history of being relatively progressive at the state and local level versus just local level like in Texas.

You don’t recruit by office for Kearney. If you get an offer you just pick an office. You can also change offices as often as you like

Boston is going to be significantly more competitive than Seattle/Dallas. Some people like working at HQs and both BCG and Bain HQs are in Boston.

Have you considered Chicago or Philly?

Boston has Sloan and HBS, but you considered it. So Philly should be on the list if that was your only qualm.

Happy to chat about our Boston office - very welcoming environment

Almost midnight here and I'm cleaning my medicine cabinet so I can reboot having a regular skin-care routine. I'm listening to one of my favorite musicals, "Ragtime", specifically the song "He Wanted to Say". Living 9 time zones away from home out of the US and watching the BLM movement there, unable to do anything concrete about it from here - this song I've listened to countless times, today about brought me to tears.

I really don’t mean this to virtue signal - just wanted to share a moment.
