Is regular upward mobility at Booz Allen expected? Or do a lot of people stagnate?

No, and yes. Pay and mobility are much lower than everyone else on this bowl. Get your career started, get some knowledge and experience under you belt, then bounce. Booz is a great place to be from, not at.

I left BAH for D four years ago for 40% raise. Did four years at BAH straight out of undergrad. One positive about Booz is that yes, it’s almost all ex military leaders, which actually translates to a very different culture. I tell everyone the best leaders I’ve ever worked for were at Booz, but Deloitte churns out managers. Leadership vs management is v real. Win for BAH in that column.

BAH’s US federal and commercial business is a great place to relax. Performance expectations are low as is the salary.

Quality of leadership leaves a lot to be desired as well.

Are there any workaround for this? Like I can use external keyboard or maybe negotiate, anything else?

If I do receive a return offer, is there any chance I can ask for it to be remote/be moved to the miami office? Should I make that clear to my superiors before offers are given out or will that hamper my chances at getting an offer in the first place? Thanks for the help
