Pros

Diverse client base and projects spaning broad industries. BearingPoint is a large, global consulting firm with over 15,000 employees in NA, EMEA and APAC that covers about every industry, it's conceivable that you can get to work on projects that have different flavors if you stick around long enough and are lucky. However, you need to manage it proactively, because you don't want to get piegon-holed to do one thing over and over again.

Cons

Because the P&L is managed by the industry group, the management consulting usually doesn't get the first pick on project staffing. Thus, when plum projectsare scarce, you may end up in an unpleasant situation if you're in management consulting.

Pros

work opportunites if you hold a clearance are interesting and ample. lots of contracts with true consulting work, rather than the staff aug stuff that i've experienced at other consulting compaines. there are a lot of opportunites with intel, Dod and law clients. the people are also great. lots of seasoned consultants with previous work experience, making it a place to share knowledge and work with people who are you equals. every project that i've worked on has appreciated that people need a work/life balance. flex schedules are available and management is ver receptive to letting you take time off when you need it.

Cons

the current reputation is a hinderance.

Pros

Opportunity for junior people to develop themselves. BearingPoint give young people opportunity early on. We do work that is less specialized and therefore less profitable than the typical consulting firm. A lot of what we do is staff support work, but this work is the type that you can give to junior members to complete without too much supervision.

Cons

We have a stigma based on a low stock price that pervades the culture. We constantly work hard to grow work, produce more profits and are constantly told we must cut back. US Public Services is highly profitable, but other areas of the business are having trouble.
