Booz Allen Hamilton reviews

Upper management has no software development experience. One bad manager has driven out a TON of senior people, and upper management buys his lies unquestioningly. Workplace went from wonderful offices to giant cube farm with no storage. I worked at the IRS call center and had more storage than what they have now. Loud and many many people in each room.In three years there I never saw a promotion from Associate to Lead Associate; instead they repeatedly drove out the higher paid associates and hired Lead Associates with no software or game development backgrounds. Booz people on other teams (and in other cities) seem much better than IMAG, all because of management. More than one former employee (in the "loop") has told me it's far worse than I saw. My review is of the IMAG team specifically, not the company as a whole. First time I've lost a job with more than one year in with no notice and no severance; they'll screw you on the way out. Booz as a whole allows employees time for self-development, but everyone on the IMAG team must be 100% billable, even making up time from marketing trips.

Old Booz is gone and will never come back. It's a revolving door with a charge code. If the consultant has no charge code then he/she will get a lack of work notice and get kicked out in heart beat. Many consultants get hired and spend on the average a year and then out with no mercy or consideration for having families or kids at home. OLE Boys Clubs everywhere and if the consultant is unable to join any of those clubs he/she will never be able to join a project.
