Pros

As some of the posts on this forum explains that your experience within the company can be either positive or negative depending on the team you are a part of. The pros are that Booz Allen is a great boost for your resume.

Cons

As they say you can only really know a company's true culture once you work in it, and I can sya that with BAH, it's all an appearance. The Core Values the company so proudly emphasizes is not even practiced by their management, who are paid high salaries for not delivering results.

Pros

Friendly work environment, flexible hours, very rarely have to work over 40 hours a week, competitive pay, competitive PTO

Cons

Booz Allen will hire individuals without a position in mind and force them immediately on to the bench. This means that after hiring, they have to conduct more interviews and networking for an “internal job search”, which I feel is disrespectful and not professional. It also means that the interviewers and hiring staff will not know what you will be doing which may result in being mislead about the true nature of your position. However the bench is very nice for existing employees who have a contract ended, allowing them to find a new one without being laid off. Health care could be more competitive. Very high deductible for what you pay. Finally, the company is attempting to transition to a technology company, which doesn’t seem to be going well.
