Pros

- You have some choice in selecting the projects you could potentially work on - The diversity in work experience amongst your peers - Tuition reimbursement - 25 days of vacation per year

Cons

- Sr. Associates and Principals are extremely weak at finding new work - New business pipeline is extremely weak - The lack of new business continually causes angst that there will be Lack of Work letters (read - layoffs) sent out - The split of BAH by the Carlyle Group diluted the global brand name - BAH is now a government consulting firm exclusively - there is no commercial consulting exposure any longer - Most of the ambitious & smartest people either left completely or moved over to Booz and Company as "Experts"

Pros

Strong mission-focused culture with meaningful work supporting national security missions. Great exposure to diverse projects, talented teammates, flexible work arrangements, and opportunities to develop skills across security, intelligence, cyber, and consulting. Benefits and professional development resources are solid.

Cons

The company culture and employee experience have changed significantly in recent years. Earlier years felt more mission-focused and employee-centered, while recent organizational shifts, government spending pressures, and increased emphasis on becoming a technology-focused company have created uncertainty for some employees. Frequent changes in priorities, restructuring, and business decisions can make job stability feel less predictable. Employees may sometimes feel disconnected from leadership, and concerns raised through HR or management channels do not always appear to result in meaningful action or transparency.
