Lol at the misinformation in WSO..."120k with 60% bonus"
To properly answer your question:
NAPE, the flagship fund, is in line with other MFs (350k+)
Life Sciences, the dedicated Life Sciences fund, is maybe 15% below that
The person who heads the Life Sciences is a savante, fucking brilliant. I am not particularly informed about the HC vertical in NAPE but overall NAPE has great culture, very strong retention among the Associate class and pays in-line with other MFs
HC is strongest NAPE vertical. Along with TPG, HC tends to carry the fund.
Sorry you didn't get the offer Associate 2 in Consulting...
HC has always been a top performer for Bain and unequivocally a leader for those in the industry. HCA was legendary, more recently they have seen a lot of success especially in HCIT (Athena, Waystar, Zelis, PartsSource etc) and pharma/pharma services (IQVIA, BPL, Cerevel etc). Style is in line with the rest of Bain Capital, significant PortCo involvement after investment. Team is absolutely top-notch, though I've heard culture can be real grindy owing to activity. Most associates who get the chance choose to stay on.
If you have an offer and are interested in healthcare (HCIT or Life Sciences-related particularly), it shouldn't be a hard decision.
