How do you all deal with the guilt of leaving a comany/ team? I have been working at Microsoft for 1 year now, and seriously considering moving. I find the code base to be very legacy and I mostly work on obscure bugs that I spend so much time on, mostly due to navigating this large code base and not having much docs to refer to. Hence I find the job slightly unsatisfying, and that I could learn more elsewhere. However, I love the wlb, the team and company culture. The guilt stops my applying.

Y’all are super aggressive at OP. People can work at a company, realize they don’t love the culture and be applying to/waiting for a better opportunity. Only a fool ups and leaves without something new lined up..
Lol at these criticisms of the OP. Maybe it’s hard to stop on a dime and leave your job without something else lined up? Maybe he likes Booz overall but just doesn’t care for that one aspect of the culture?
Military history and govt history. Not sure I like it or that it’s good to be that similar to your own clients if you’re trying to lead change. Wouldn’t it be better to lead by example than emulation?
If you don’t like it why are you at Booz? Asking for a friend.
Op, yes, when I was at Booz Allen I felt my colleagues and firm culture greatly emulated the government. I was on DoD contracts out of the PNT and it was the stuffiest environment.
Now in commercial and much happier. My two cents. Come join the dark side
Booz does tend to take itself a bit too seriously when it comes to conforming to gov’t client culture. I’ve been on sites where Booz was the only firm that made their people come in a suit and tie every day; all the other firms had people dress more sensibly. I think it’s part of our being more staff augmentation than real consulting. The idea is to come and blend in and just be "one of them.”
And if you like govt culture so much, why don’t you go be a govt employee?
And McKinsey people don’t?
Ironically, it makes us stick out like so many sore thumbs 😄
Former boozer, its partially because 90% of the revenue for the firm comes from intel and defense work...the civil market is so small. I know that Horacio is trying to make it a more friendly environment but the majority of people are from the era where suit and tie was the mandatory uniform
There’s parts of the firm where “dress for your day” isn’t a goddamn lie? 😮
BA1- why do you respond to inquisition with abrupt defensiveness? Not the Booz way to question leaders? See what I mean about military culture emulation?
If you’re not aligned to the culture what’s keeping you there. If we go into a government facility looking like a bunch of McKinsey folks in suits dressed like they’re going to a wedding how much rapport will we have? Why not ask this in the Booz bowl?
Lol okay soldier. What’d McKinsey do to you? Rude.
It really depends on the project team. In my experience DOD projects tend to feel more like that whereas outside of DOD you're more likely to find more of a consulting atmosphere on your teams.
Also... ya’ll wear suits more than any other firm Not sure why BA1 decided to call out McK? Seems salty
B3- if the client isn’t wearing suits but you are, wouldn’t that make you stick out less? Also does “being one of them” lend well to staff aug? I know there are mixed feelings on staff aug
@BAH3 Haha if it makes you feel better, our dress for your day is mostly a lie too (at least in defense)
You didn’t answer the question, why are you working there if you dislike the culture so much?
McKinsey didn’t do anything to me, and I’m not a soldier, but I know how to be a consultant and engage with stakeholders.
