We recognize that in many organizations, professional women face a unique set of hurdles as they navigate their careers. At BCG, reward is based on merit and success is directly proportional to talent and effort. Having been one of the first companies in the industry to hire a female consultant, elect a female partner, and appoint a woman as head of one of our largest offices, we have an impressive history of female leadership. The share of women in each cohort and at each tenure level is continuously growing, and we consistently outperform our peers in these metrics. Furthermore, an increasing number of BCG women are becoming alumni in leading positions outside BCG.
Our global Women’s Initiative supports and promotes affiliation among our female employees through its formal and informal network of mentors and role models. We also regularly schedule women-specific events, including gatherings in local offices and regional conferences.
Finally, for women (and men) who need more flexibility to attend to family or other personal commitments, we offer a range of progressive options. These include part-time employment, leaves of absence, and temporary non-client-facing roles.
We are committed to your success, both professional and personal. Read some of our personal growth stories from women at BCG.
