Bearingpoint is a good company, but the company's leadership needs to develop a long term strategy and stick with it.

Pros

The company provides for a good work life balance. The company also provides a good medial plan. The 401 K matching could improve.

Cons

The company leadership is too reactionary. The company has a very poor accounting systems which negatively impacts the decisions the senior leadership is making. Too make matters worse, a large portion of the management base performance on a metric called utilization, which is hours charged to a client divided by the net available hours. This is problamatic because it does not take into account the actual costs of the individuals working on the project, which may lead to a project running over it's budget.

Pros

The people are really what is keeping BE together. Management does respect and understand the work / life balance.

Cons

No communication from practice leads or management. Because of the slash and burn policy of Harbach earlier in the year to return to profitability, it is very difficult to be transferred from a crappy client. Over half of the consultants on projects are independents that had to be hired since all the BE consultants were let go. No loyality from them. Makes one wonder why everyone just doesn't become independent and then charge a premium to BE to allow them to use you.

Pros

BearingPoint serves as a good foundation for Gov't consulting experience. You will find that you have the opportunity to interact with a handful of prominent gov't agencies while working w/n the Public Services sector. BE is a great stepping stone for other consulting opportunities and they welcome you those who jump back and forth from other companies.

Cons

Pay/bonuses are not up to industry standard. Despite being a top performer, I have noticed that raises and bonuses are quite stingy and are not reflective of one's performance.
