Booz Allen Hamilton reviews

Difficult to obtain follow-on work once your main tasking expires. Management (Level IV and V) is not very engaged in developing new business opportunities to maintain staff employment. As a level III preparing an annual assessment on a total stranger, I feel the personnel assessment process is just Management's way of offloading one of their key tasks to lower level personnel. Having been an assessor 3 times and an assessee twice, I feel my performance was underestimated because the assessor had no clue about the real details of my job performance; likewise when I was an assessor, I felt the reviews I turned in were somewhat superficial. Not a big fan of getting paid once a month. When you spend 40 hour a week on the client site, you necesarily have a limited view of what's going on at the main office. Seems the current setup favors folks who actually have a desk at the main office. The business case requirement for promotion to Level IV is a load of baloney. Again, in my two years with the Firm, I never saw an off-site Level III get the Level IV promotion. Archaic Dress Code requirements. Professionals need not be told how to dress professionallly

Booz Allen and Hamilton in the Linthicum Maryland office is a very competitive working environment, meaning that your colleagues are all working against each other to try to obtain work and assignments. This corporate culture has created an environment of mistrust of others motives, lack of information sharing, misinformation being provided across the organization and a general cut throat mentality.
