Pros

Extended travelings to overseas and nationwide. Various projects with different, interesting people. The learning and career development program is well placed for beginning employees that they are free to pursue any competencies. There is really no limit to what you can do and what you cannot do, so people are free to explore different subjects. it definitely has feeling that work and personal life has good balance as people are free to work from home whenever they want to. Since it's global firm, worldwide projects are in place so consultants are free to pursue any opportunities if they wish to.

Cons

Public Services aren't really consultants, they are totally different from Commercial, and Finance services. Senior managers and managing directors aren't as superior as other top consulting firms thus losing some key clients. The teamwork is okay, but have room for improvements, the salaries aren't high as other firms mainly because we are not winning some key deals.

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.
