BRMi reviews

-If you don't consume alcohol like your life depends on it, you will be bullied and demeaned on a regular basis. No joke - it's like bad-college-movie peer pressure, but from people in their 30s and 40s. -They don't have a vision for differentiating themselves as a firm. Their strategic plan simply consists of writing as many proposals and winning as many contracts as possible. -They pile twice to three times as many people as are actually needed to work on a particular project. Very inefficient use of internal resources, as well as contract dollars. -What the other reviewer said about line managers having "absolute say," is absolutely true. You will get your hand "slapped" for making suggestions for improvement and/or attempting to innovate. In other words, if they hire you as a consultant, don't plan on consulting. I spoke to a well-known DC staffing and recruiting guy last week, and he told me that he has received a number of resumes from people who have either left, or are in the process of leaving the company - and he gave the same reasons I've given above re: employee dissatisfaction.

While the company is starting to expand into many different areas, project opportunities are not as diverse as you would find with a larger firm.
