Bain & Company'] is a global management consultancy company, and one of the "Big Three" management consultancies (together with McKinsey & Company and the Boston Consulting Group). Known for its ruthless business practices, it had a big part in the outsourcing of US manufacturing. Bain has been in the forefront of digital development and e-trade, including in sectors such as health care and education.

Company Culture

Bain is famous for the iron discipline and gung-ho spirit of its troops (who are known throughout the industry as Bainies), and for its extraordinary secrecy Orit Gadiesh, its chairman since 1993, who took over from has long been a member of the Board of Trustees of the World Economic Forum.


COVID-19

Bain is strongly connected to the worldwide government measures stated to be against Covid-19.[1].

Bain is advising both the British[2] and Indian[3] governments on Covid-related policies. In France, the partnership goes further: it has been entrusted by the government to steer the country’s Covid testing strategy.[4]. According to the French Health Ministry, “Bain’s intervention is pro bono, "free advice"[5], as is the case in India.

In 2011 Bain & Company envisaged a most promising future for vaccines in the age of globalization[6].

Media Connections

As "market boundaries between telecommunication, technology and media continue to diminish". Bain has worked with "7 of 10 global diversified media and entertainment companies, the top 5 B2B information companies and 8 of the 11 leading publishers," to "transform their business".[7]

Bain Capital

Formally independent, Bain Capital was founded in 1984 by former members of Bain & Company, including Mitt Romney, T. Coleman Andrews and Eric Kriss, helped by John W. Hanley, the CEO of Monsanto. Bain Capital is notably specialized in the takeover of businesses, which are then often forced into layoffs and debts, even into bankruptcy. According to the latter’s former managing director, Geoff Rehnert, this interconnected investment firm was wanted by Bill Bain and his partners in order to “do for the companies that they invested in or that they bought what they were doing for their clients, [so] that they would be even more profitable than just doing it on a consulting basis”.[8]
