Can anyone talk about Booz Allen Hamilton? What’s the culture like? How does the compensation compared to Big 4 consulting/advisory? Is the business good? Does it truly value diversity in leadership?

Agree with both above comments. Been at BAH for 10 years in both federal and commercial. Would definitely echo that pay is most competitive in Commercial (all cyber), Fed cyber, and technical high clearance (TS/SCI w/poly). Like most big companies your day to day experience will vary across accounts and leadership pyramids, but in general WLB is excellent and often makes up for slightly lower pay. Benefits are decent, though not incredible. 401k match is excellent (6%) though only deposited yearly (early Feb, have to be employed on 12/31 to get it for prior year).

Very strong corporate culture. Red hot focus on protecting the brand and being a good corporate citizen. Dramatically stronger corporate governanve procedures in place than anywhere else I've ever worked or observed. Upward mobility is very good *if* you're willing to put in the work (60-70 hour weeks easy if you want to make principal). Job security is very good. Main downside is pay for non-technical talent is 15-35% below market rate and the company will make little to no effort to retain you unless you're in cyber/software.

Each account at BAH is pretty different in terms of pay, culture, diversity etc. I’d say that compensation is probably lower than big 4 but also depends, people in the SIG and Commercial seem to be paid competitively but in other areas it’s shockingly low. I think leadership does value diversity but the minority employee experience is very inconsistent because some middle managers are not supportive of it. Even if our CEO is progressive that doesn’t really matter if your boss doesn’t “get” why diversity initiatives are important.

I am writing this message besides the staff group of EY GDS. Specifically Staff -1 at assurance level. I would request everyone to spare few minutes and read it -

Wanted to bring out that staff-1's are paid peanuts (3.33L CTC) please don't expect them to slog 12-13 hours. They don't have enough motivation or incentives to work that long. Seniors,AM's and Managers should be more kind and explain the work to them clearly rather than making last minute changes.
