Pros

The career opportunities at BearingPoint are not limiting and there are a wide range of projects available. The company has 3 business segments: Public Service, Financial Services, and Commercial Services and then Finance and Accounting. The clients range from U.S. governments to financial services to other countries. If you prefer working with numbers then you can take your pick with finance and accounting and assist with preparing the books for our auditors.

Cons

The company is still recovering financially from restating its earnings from 2003, 2004, & 2005 & a couple of bas contracts and this has result a series of losses over the last couple of years. This has affected overall compensation, education benefits, and bonus pool. Additionally, communication from c-level leadership on where the company is heading especially while in period of red has not been honest.

Pros

The projects you work on provide an opportunity to influence the client's decision makers on important topics. I have yet to be on a project where you just push deliverables out the door.

Cons

The company has been hit with some hard times and that can tend to make it difficult for top management to focus on the positive things. In my opinion, BE should not have gone public (it was the thing to do back in 2000) and is paying the price of having some hard times in a very public forum.

Pros

If you join the right team at BearingPoint, your career growth can be tremendous and there are still some great people at the company. Some of the senior managers are really strong.

Cons

It is very important to join the right team of people at the company and also to ensure that your MD likes you. If you join the wrong team, your career will probably suffer at the company and you will end up in staff aug positions.
