Pros

- Salary and promotions are decent - Hire smart people, for the most part - Opportunities to create your own career - Senior leadership is nice if you're on their good side - 10 sick days! 15 PTO!

Cons

- Company lost basically all of the workforce from 2015 by 2018 - All the golden children left - Company is loaded with little kids who don't know what they're doing - Telling employees to read things on the internet does not constitute training - HR is awful (one of the ladies way, way worse than the other). All of recruiting quit. - Inability to innovate (testing automation, Salesforce, AWS) - no wonder you aren't winning contracts - Proposal process is done by consultants and is a joke - no one knows what they're doing - Lack of ability to choose your own People Manager/advocate for your career - if you hate your People Manager, too bad - Lack of leadership training/favorites game - senior leadership is full of former Booz employees who isolate themselves - if you aren't in their club, too bad - Mclean location is awful for collaboration - need to be back in DC

Pros

Pretty flexible. It's cool if you get on a project with a good client, because honestly you will become like a low-class employee at that company who they all dont care about and expect you not to be around very long so if you can deal with that then you can try and have a good time with them.

Cons

Honestly can't believe the audacity and entitlement of the middle management at this place. For example, last year everybody got about 3% merit raises (not at all keeping up with inflation but still something). This year, they were working with the same pool of funds to work with for raises, but made a "business decision" to consolidate the raises to only management. The rest of us got nothing. And the TOLD us they kept everything for themselves. And in addition to that, they twisted the knife by COMPLAINING to the whole department on a department call that their bonuses weren't enough. Just tone-deaf and careless mostly.
