Pros

The only reason I'm putting up with all the stress is because of the pay. If it weren't for that, I would've left a long time ago.

Cons

Employees were expected to perform at a high level right from the start, despite receiving no training and being given vague guidelines. I can't even ask management any questions because they get annoyed whenever I do.

Pros

Opportunities for work across various industries and countries, but especially within the federal government

Cons

Very large company, seems often like there's little regard for the individual. Also pay is less than comparable wages at firms like Deloitte, who earn a higher salary. Many from leadership has touted Guidehouse over firms like Deloitte because of things like our work/life balance is "more manageable", or that our company culture is less toxic. This is not true - we work just as many long hours, under stressful circumstances, but get paid significantly less than our near peers.

Pros

This company doesn’t have any good qualities.

Cons

Employees of Guidehouse are overworked and underpaid. The workplace is exhausting, so most employees are stressed and drained. Despite the demanding and stressful work environment, the leadership doesn’t even bother to provide us with fair compensation. Avoid this company for your own good.
