Pros

A wide plethora of project types Intelligent and friendly people Nice office space Remote work offers a lot of flexibility in work/life balance

Cons

Company has grown very quickly in the past few years-- during my time there, it often felt like managers were so busy fulfilling their myriad other duties and neglected ensuring that their employees' career growth trajectories were positive Acquisition of company by Bain Capital changed focus of employee assessment to disproportionately account for utilization rates during employee reviews that was not seen under previous ownership-- even barely missing your utilization target can result in not receiving a good review Unfortunately the company is very vulnerable to changes in federal spending-- abrupt stop work orders can radically change the number of projects available to the company at large, thereby affecting employee utilization rates.

Pros

Great client relations experience. GH has or had some interesting contracts that provided great consulting experience.

Cons

Very little if any culture. Extremely segmented and I found it difficult to network. Promotions are based first and foremost on the business case so it can be difficult. I was part of a recent round of layoffs and they did it by sending an email at the end of the day.

Pros

Company's doing good because they don't pay us for how much we work.

Cons

We work more than 12 hours on a shift but don't get appreciated. Management's awful, they only think about themselves and never about our welfare. We're often stressed and leave exhausted every shift, and only get our basic salary during paydays. No incentive or bonus because management is awful cheap!
