I’ve worked for two consulting firms (one major government contractor and another tier 2 firm) and I’m still only 3 years into my career, so am not a senior person. I’ve always found the work and the people OK and nice, and it was just an industry that lined up well with my degree. But I’ve found working at these big companies to utterly soul draining—Just the day-day stress and grind over meaningless tasks, etc. Could looking at smaller more niche/boutique firms be worthwhile and different?

Thoughts on leaving PA primarily due to the metrics based culture (utilization, dtc, use of X digital tool, revenue, margin, etc). I find this aspect of PA stressful and exhausting but not sure if this is something you just get used to. Currently a manager and seems like the metrics just change over time / don’t get easier.

Deloitte 🐠, How much revenue do you have to win and manage to make partner?

Do Leidos, SAIC, and other mostly-fed consulting businesses pay bonuses to all levels? If so, what does a typical bonus target look like? Booz Allen does not pay bonuses until you get to the Senior Associate level (1 step below Director) and I think that impacts employee performance and work ethic pretty dramatically. I’m wondering if not paying bonuses is common to federal contracting because of how the contracts or priced, or if this is something unique to Booz Allen.

Can any Peraton 🐠 help me understand the level structure? I see a Senior Principal role I'm interested in but not really sure the comp and where it falls on the totem pole. TIA!
