Bain & Company

"Bain has created "Women @ Bain" a team which hosts events for women to experience share on their professional careers and how they've handled climbing the corporate ladder, having families, taking time off, adjusting hours, etc. It's amazing to hear how many women have done this and interesting to hear the tactics they've done to do so. "

"Great place to work. No real complaints. I would recommend to my daughter"

"Serious investment in making the workplace better for women, but the job is a tough one! Client services is a difficult industry to find attractive work/life balance in. "

"Bain is an awesome place to work with much opportunity to grow in the direction you are interested in. If your qualifications and your desire to learn are there, the company is open and supports your development choices. "

"Though Bain has very open dialogue about how to support women and has great policies in place, there is still a lack of women in upper management and it's hard to get them there and to get them to stay due to the lifestyle demands of the client service consulting industry. You have to make a lot of trade offs if you want to stay, even if you take advantage of their flexible working program, etc. Many younger employees who are male have children and stay at home wives and are more able to fully devote themselves, which encourages some women to leave the company."
