Good enough for government work

Recommend

Pros

Incredible people; talent rich; in the center of the action; looks great on a resume; robust internal structure fosters training and development; good benefits

Cons

No longer a true "consulting" firm. Has shifted to contractor mode. Focus is on growing work instead of delivering the consulting expertise the client needs. Shrinking government budget means less work.

Good company, concerned for future

Pros

Salary, 401k, Benefits, Teleworking. Excellent employees who work hard for their clients.

Cons

Leadership is over concerned with bottom line. Too much time is spent on activities that don't have a strong ROI (example: overly complicated assessments). Suppossed to be one P&L but acts in silos and teams/locations keep work from each other.

Good place to work, but caveat emptor...

Pros

Great place to get your start or end your career. Great processes, fluid operations and a solid reputation. Still turns heads nad piques curiosity when found on a resume.

Cons

Salary tends to be around 10-15% below that of your peers. Non longer the prestigious "consulting firm" it once was. Now more of "contracting company" like a Lockheed Martin or an SAIC. Nothing wrong with that per se, just not as much pride in membership as there was before the Booz & Co. sell-off. Now exclusively government in focus, it has taken on a feel of being very hide-bound by former rank in the military or civil service. Just another (expensive) place to work now. Good, just not special.
