Pros

There are great projects and some great leaders who will teach you how to become a successful consultant. Their government presence is significant and they are ambitious to grow it even further.

Cons

Once Bain bought this place it started to significantly change for the worse. There were significant layoffs and partners getting fired constantly. It created a paranoia among all staff levels with significant uncertainty of our job security. Top leadership who were brought on didn’t sympathize with the situation and made things worse with their lack of communication.

Pros

Promises that were only good to hear but eventually forgotten!

Cons

Long working hours, no overtime pay, no night differential. Working for Guidehouse felt like volunteering! Aside from all the terrible pay, there’s no career path for us, and management basically doesn’t care about us! We were deprived of the work-life balance management themselves had promised!
