Pros

Great company to get solid training and to put on a resume. This company is especially a great choice for recent graduates.

Cons

To really advance with this company it's helpful to be an alpha dog type personality. If you're not, it can be difficult to get noticed. Within the corporate headquarters it can seem especially "dog eat dog". If you are working at client site, it is easy to feel disconnected from the company. Additionally, advancement depends on more than doing a great job in fulfilling your work requirements. You must also be willing to take on outside tasks and white paper writing which can be difficult if you're on a demanding contract already.

Pros

Solid beneifts, executive management seems to provide stable, conservative business management practices, the firm is well respected - at least in the DC area, decent pay

Cons

Lack of stimulating work, company basically does staff augmentation for the federal government, they are trying to do a better job of linking everyone together but that is practically impossible to do when personnel need to be 100% on-site, on-site employees at govt site do not get same respect for new work or the ability to really do flex time which BAH crows about as a workplace advantage

Pros

Excellent opportunity for advancement. Do a good job, and you'll move up and get compensated - though maybe not immediately. Great place to learn on the job, there's a lot of smart, competent people that can help you get better.

Cons

Occasional lousy managers. The Senior Associate core is not all excellent, though the Principals are generally very good.
