Currently at Booz. Culture/experience is better than most places I’ve worked. Getting ready for a different performance management approach kicking off this month so ready yourself for the growing pains there. Depending on your role, and what you want, there is a lot of variety but access to those roles initially will be based a lot on your admin team’s network. I’ve gone and come back if that helps at all

Spent almost 10 years at Booz and loved it. Learned so much and there are great mentors there. Culture was pretty amazing - most of my closest friends are from my Booz days Make sure you build a strong network of people there - you never know where your next billable gig could come from.

Experiences will vary dramatically depending on team, market, and location. People will want you to succeed, but it’ll be up to you to take the initiative and make it happen!

I worked at BAH for about a year before I jumped to Deloitte. The vibe wasn’t what I wanted/the work I was doing was dry - Federal space. However I have two close friends (both Sr Cons) there now and they hate it 😞

Your vibe/experience will depend on the market group you're joining (Defense/Civil/Health/Commercial/etc.). Also depends on your administrative team (VP/Principal tree). I've been at both Accenture and Deloitte. My time at BAH has been very positive so far (~2 years).

@A3 - most revenue does come from government work, but Booz has been aggressively trying to grow their commercial business, especially in cyber. Their commercial cyber practice went through some turnover (in leadership) with some key departures. Though I heard the ship is now on a good path with the hiring of former Target CISO

I recently accepted a job that I quite overqualified for because I’m in need of a job. I got hired as a Marketing Manager and work directly with the Marketing Director. Come to find out my director is still in school and has absolutely no marketing experience. She’s been with the company for 4 months. They seem to want to utilize my complete skills set and make up for her lack of marketing knowledge but maintain her position as director and pay me a entry level marketing manager salary. Advice?
