Pros

Competitive pay and leadership mentor program. In my personal experience, leadership has been very helpful. Depending on your management leader, mine personally gives me room to grow and prove my skills and ideas.

Cons

Due to the financial difficulties of the company, employees can definitely feel the negative morale and significant cost reductions. Although the economy is tough, when the CEO admits that he had to let go of many intelligent people, you start to wonder. Many systems and procedures have room for improvement. Many are not effective but pursued because of office politics.

Pros

It's a big company with some opportunities to move to new projects. The training programs they offer where employees do a workshop at Yale University seems like a good gig. They seem to pay pretty well. My co-workers are young and fun. Public services is a strong segment.

Cons

The company is a listed company and the BE stock is not doing so well. In addition, segments of the company are not pulling their weight. They hire and retain people with clearances even if they aren't qualified. There is a lot fo on-the-job training which slows delivery.

Pros

BearingPoint is an excellent place to start fresh out of school. If you end up on a decent, long-term project, getting your first promotion in roughly a year seems highly likely. The paid-time-off is about as good as it gets, at 20 days. Supposedly, there are many opportunities for mobility within the company, although moving around is not typically good for career advancement.

Cons

Employee performance reviews used to be semi-annual; now they come around only once a year. This means you have to wait until year end for possible promotions. The poor financial status of the company is highly reflected in employee raises and promotions. Does not reimburse for advanced degree. If you're not on a project and sitting on the bench for longer than a month, it appears highly likely that you will be let go. May not be your fault whatsoever but the bottom line for this company has been the top priority especially as of late.
