Pros

If you are starting your career, this is a great place to work. It opens many doors for you and allows you to build a vast network. You will get exposure to multiple companies and technologies as opposed to just one company (if you are not in the consulting realm).

Cons

One of the major downsides of working at BearingPoint is consistency. You are obviously going to get different people to work with from project to project. But also it depends on who your managers are for your performance review. If you have a bad manager then you will not get good compensation, but if you have a good manager then you will. I know of some who are promoted every cycle, while others it takes a year or two to get one promotion.

Thank you for your review. You refer to a different company, namely BearingPoint Inc. Our company, BearingPoint headquartered in Europe, has been a separate legal entity and conducted a management buyout in 2009. Its development since then is very positive, see our Annual Report: https://www.bearingpoint.com/files/BearingPoint_Annual_Report_24.pdf

Pros

Good pay, good location, other employees are good to work with.

Cons

This organization is deeply mismanaged. The four U.S. partners are consistently at odds with one another and unable to collaborate, often dragging employees into their conflicts. The lead U.S. partner regularly makes inappropriate, sexist remarks, despite being a father to daughters, creating a hostile environment. Employees are encouraged to report issues to HR, but concerns are routinely dismissed, and no meaningful action is taken. Speaking up only puts a target on your back, several employees who voiced concerns were included in subsequent rounds of layoffs. The global leadership team is fully aware of the ongoing dysfunction, especially at the partner level, yet chooses to ignore it in favor of their own career advancement. This lack of accountability at every level makes for an incredibly toxic and demoralizing workplace.
