Used to sing Booz Allen’s praise until I got on this trash project. Trying to switch projects internally but also considering guide house. Has anyone made that switch? How does GH compare culture&$

Not true, all compensation is the same. Bonuses are decent at Guidehouse. I’ve only seen normal attrition in my sector and we are growing in a good way consistent with prior years. Overall headcount is up and we are strict on who we bring in to our practice (ie best talent)

I made the switch a few months ago, also because I was on a trash project that pushed me to see what else was out there and ended up jumping for a significant raise.

There are things that are better here and things that are worse, but fwiw so far I've enjoyed working with everyone here and I like my project. Happy to talk more if any of you want to drop a burner or dm me.

Guidehouse is in a major hiring frenzy in general rn so it could be hit or miss on where you end up places and what your colleagues are like. (Before anyone from GH trashes me for saying things w/o working there, I have many close friends still at the firm)

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.
