Pros

The culture and the pay is much better than I found at other consulting companies I've worked. The leadership appears to live by the values they promote. There's a big emphasis on a positive, collaborative, and friendly culture that aims for excellence.

Cons

Company is still experiencing quite a bit of change with the departure from PwC and acquisition of Navigant. Internal systems, processes and applications frequently experience wrinkles that need to be ironed out.

Pros

Good working locations in DMV.

Cons

New company struggling to find its identity. Lots of turnover, especially in leadership (non executive) roles. Weird communications from senior leaders (too long and much of it demonstrably untrue). IT systems are pathetic - they don’t work most of the time.

Pros

• The company has an abundance of opportunity available allowing those who are presently employed to be promoted even quicker. • The salary and benefits are competitive with other consulting firms. • The PwC split helps Guidehouse be more independent and pursue business in an unlimited area. • There are a diverse group of professional people who have knowledge in all areas that add value to the various engagements. • Micromanagement is low considering my previous career with a former company which demonstrates Guidehouse has confidence in their associates to get the job done and satisfy the client.

Cons

• The IT infrastructure is cloud based and is very slow causing associates to be frustrated when deliverables are due. Most of the time is spent waiting on the cloud to operate. It continues spins and crashes. My biggest frustration of all considerations… • Although it is wonderful that Guidehouse is growing exponentially with staff, it is frustrating that the space we have available is limited and more people continue to join causing issues when government offices are closed and everyone has to pack in the Guidehouse office location. No seating available. • Communication seems to be an issue when it comes to your role and responsibility. You are pretty much left to figure things out for yourself. • The hiring process for referrals appears to take a long time. I referred someone who had to continuously reach out to the recruiter for updates. The recruiter was not responsive the majority of the time and still there is no solid answer.
