Despite what you may see elsewhere on FB, some people do actually enjoy working at Guidehouse and get compensated quite well.

As for promotion, I’m not interested in the manager level quite yet. I’m on the higher end of the band because I am a SME and generally just like the workload of a SA 🙂

Nowhere, haven’t had the bonus/raise convo yet but I love my work and I’m already pretty well compensated

Seems the people who are really upset are the new hires to deluded themselves into thinking they’d see more money this year.

We don’t have a specialist track so a lot of SMEs that wouldn’t want to/couldn’t manage a team come in at very high salaries due to high bill rates from their years of experience

There are talks to create this type of track, I think it would be a great move for GH

I don’t want to say but I’m waiting for an offer this week... fingers crossed. If the offer is no good I am asking a friend to refer me to Deloitte. I wish I could give notice yesterday.

People have this attitude bc no one wants to work in a negative place. Constantly bad mouthing the company will not result in anything productive. If you have solutions, share them. If you’re over it, then it’s not the right place for you. There are people who are proud to work here and open to working through the issues.
