Thank you for your positive review and fair comments. We are committed to generating awareness and understanding at all levels of the challenges associated with diversity. We pay particular attention to the development of female consultants, and we have a Women's Leadership Program dedicated to the advancement of female consultants. We have also launched a women's network sponsored by senior female leaders acting as role models. This network gives a platform to women to connect with other female colleagues, offer support to each other and determine an agenda on which to engage with our leaders. The network also provides networking and social opportunities to meet and discuss business themes as well as professional development. Whilst this is a starting point, we strongly believe we will continue to build on this initiative in order to achieve our gender diversity targets.

Pros

- Nice office in Monument overlooking the river - Employees generally friendly - Good work-life balance for the industry (my hours were around 9-6 on average)

Cons

- Long periods spent on the bench - not enough work to go around yet they seem to still be recruiting hard at the junior levels, very high churn - Boring work if you're lucky enough to get onto a project in the first place, also often meant being in the midlands or north of England for 4-5 days per week - Poorly paid relative to other consultancies with slow progression and small bonuses

We are very sorry to hear you didn’t have the experience we strive to provide for our employees at BearingPoint. We take full care to ensure our employees are listened to, and gain the full consultancy experience whilst with us. As is the nature of consulting, there will always be periods of time where some staff may not be on a project, and we look to provide alternative, stimulating non-project work opportunities whilst they are on the bench. We also always endeavour to consult with our staff before they are put onto a project, taking the time to understand individual career goals and industry interests, and wherever possible ensure projects are aligned to this. At present, our consultants are fully utilised, and because of this we are investing in our recruitment activities – growing the firm through it’s people and talent. We also ensure we provide competitive remuneration to our employees, benchmarking against the industry, with a competitive performance related bonus system in place.
