Pros

100% client facing. Educational benefits really good, particularly for those seeking advanced degrees.

Cons

Strong old boys network. Experienced new hires undervalued for skills brought to the table. Growth curve and promotion timeline long, with lots of intermediate, non-value add steps (Associate, Lead Associate, Associate III). It's just too much and the job duties are not appreciably different within these roles.

Pros

Good benefits...health, profit sharing. Flexibility in schedules, work locations. IT well maintained. Growth if you have strong sponsorship from immediate team.

Cons

No growth unless sponsored directly regardless of network or work quality. Plug in mentality in staffing...just fill the space. Smart people doing menial work just to keep teams billable. Favoritism, nepotism, poorly qualified career managers. The consulting speak has moved inward more than ever before.

Pros

Extremely flexible with schedule, nice PTO structure with government holidays off,work can be challenging and there is a lot of room to advance your career with certifications and tuition reimbursement, additionally the health care is phenomenal

Cons

Since the company became public, there are more political barriers preventing promotion/raises/appropriate compensation, each year more benefits are scaled back or removed entirely, eventually Booz Allen will not have the competitive edge they once had over industry rivals which is unfortunate and in my opinion can be tied back to shareholders
