Business Outlook
Pros
-Strong reputation across the federal government -Established client relationships and wide variety of projects -Well-defined hierarchy and employee development structure -360 degree annual review process which gathers feedback from management, peers, clients, and others - Wide variety of projects both short, and long-term
Cons
-Strong emphasis on "home team" structure makes it very important to get hired onto a good home team -Employee hierarchy and rank structure creates a diamond shape where the majority of employees falls at the Associate level and is hard to progress to Senior Associate -With Carlyle Group ownership, seems like main emphasis is on profitability even at the expense of firm reputation and long-term prospects
