      BearingPoint is a great place to gain valuable experiences but not for long-term career growth

      Pros

      BearingPoint is a great place to gain valuable experiences but not for long-term career growth. Given the current situation the company is in right now, the morale is very low and majority of employees have had to put their careers on hold. If this is not a hassle you want to deal with then stay away.

      Cons

      Senior management is successfully taking this company into bankruptcy. The number of contracts is growing smaller by the day. There would be a good chance you not going to get to work in the industry you prefer. Employee are not able to work on projects where they desire to advance their careers, instead they are staffed on whatever the few remaining are available.

      Pros

      Since working for BearingPoint there has been a lot of opportunity for growth. Like most consulting firms, a lot depends on your direct manager and project. I have found that the salary is competitive for the industry and especially in the Washington DC area. The public (intel group) seems to have the most driven and intelligent employees. The company will sponsor your clearance if you are selected for that group.

      Cons

      Overall, the training is not up to par with other consulting firms. Additionally, BearingPoint has a poor reputation among consulting firms. Many people get promoted based on tenure not on ability which can be frustrating.

      BearingPoint is a great place to advance, but there are pitfalls

      Pros

      BearingPoint has been a fantastic place for me to grow as a professional. I have been given many opportunities to succeed, but part of that is me asking my project managers for more responsibility. I appreciate that there is no set timeline for promotion, as can be the case with some other companies (e.g. 2 or 3 years in a position before you can move up a level). I know a few people who've been promoted twice a year, two years in a row (although this is no longer possible). One of BearingPoint's strengths is their partnership with the Yale School of Management. There are scheduled training classes for just about all levels.

      Cons

      BearingPoint has a lot of organizational challenges that are public knowledge to anyone who follows BearingPoint. That instability would cause me to pause before recommending BearingPoint to most individuals. There is not a lot of communication about what is going on with the company and at many times I think it's tough to get visibility about what's happening at the company, not just with the company as a whole, but also with upcoming projects. Benefits are so-so. They provide just about everything you would expect, except tuition reimbursement, but nothing's superb. I may be spoiled from knowing about my husband's nonprofit benefits and my mom's government benefits, my sister's from one of the top tech companies in the U.S., and my former employer, one of the top financial institutions in the world. Also, it is important for employees to understand the importance of being chargeable. You need to chargeable in order to be valuable to the company. If you're not chargeable, you are in danger of being let-go, especially if you're new to the organization and have not yet had an opportunity to prove your value.
