Pros

Pay was decent Made some good friends out of the experience Got experience at a big firm Was able to learn what I didn't want in a company.

Cons

Management perpetuated double standards, played favorites, and did not support you if issues arose on a project. Expectations were not communicated, yet employees were reprimanded for not meeting those expectations. Corporate culture was strange, super-competitive but without the same esteem as competitors. Extreme use of consultant-speak buzz words like "bandwidth" Struggle to advance, as I was not one of my manager's "favorites"

Pros

It was a great company once upon a time. One of the former Big Six consulting firms. It was a great place to build your resume and then move on to industry. Managing Directors were good and the Oracle ERP practice was the best in the industry. Great Federal government practice. If you were in a growing practice, pay was great and you were promoted fairly fast. . . . . . It still may be a great place to work for new graduates just starting off. You will learn all the good and bad of management and Information technology consulting .

Cons

Oh ... the days when it was KPMG. Those were the days of great projects and great experience. It was a great place to build your resume. Not sure what happened. But now it is a crappy place. . . . . With the economy being what it is and Bearing Point having far greater internal problems, it looks like it may not even survive as a business concern. That is sad .. considering its legacy of being a former Big 6 consulting firm . Travel is ridiculous and they do not have a system of assigning people to local projects.
