Pluspunten

They offer challenging work and are winning government contracts . Offices are metro accessible. Good start for junior to mid level to get quality skills to take with them to better place.

Minpunten

Management has no training and they have no policies. So it's a backstabbing culture where to get ahead you kiss up and managers will use your every stumble to email to 5 other people to look important. They manage by submission . You are being asked to work at a startup pace for long hours with no expectation of equity. They are controlled by a private equity fund that is fattening up the bird to sell to market. That's all that matters! Their tech is horrible as their cloud crashes constantly. The benefits are bare bones and don't compare with other big consulting companies. They focus on keeping costs low.

Pluspunten

I work directly with excellent people. My immediate colleagues are collaborative, capable, and committed to doing high-quality work for clients.

Minpunten

The biggest challenges tend to come from the corporate side of the organization. Corporate processes and communication can sometimes feel disconnected from the needs of project teams, which creates unnecessary friction. In addition, benefits that were once stronger, including 401(k) matching and medical coverage, have been significantly reduced. A recent example is the increased emphasis on “utilization rates” in merit increases. While utilization is understandable in a consulting environment, tying it too heavily to merit can effectively penalize employees for using earned vacation time and can make PTO feel less like a real benefit.
