Business Outlook

Pros

Great People, Great Culture, Great Collaboration, Good Assessment process, clear expectations for promotion

Cons

High expectations and high performing organizations can be good and bad. They expect more so if you are not prepared to add value Booz Allen might not be a good fit for you.

Great company once you hit the ground running

Business Outlook

Pros

I have found the work life balance to be very fair if that is a priority. Managers have been very accommodating for my desire to pursue philanthropic and volunteer efforts even if during company hours.

Cons

Not a place to work for if you are not flexible when first joining. Have to be proactive in some situations to find a billable project.

Great on the internal side, awful to deal with federal government

Senior consultant

Business Outlook

Pros

Internal education and management was great for me personally. I know others did not have the same, but my support with my level 4 and level 5 were amazing. If you are working in area that is the next up and coming thing, the resources provided to you are limitless

Cons

Working primarily with government civilians can drain your soul. I once had to teach one of my clients how to "google" something.
