Terrible management, this office is an old school boys club all the way. Politics reign and your superiors will stab you in the back while smiling to your face. Expect to receive passive aggressive emails at all hours of the day/night. Favoritism is off the charts, it doesn’t matter what your chargeability or performance reviews say, if the people in power don’t want you promoted you won’t be. This goes both ways too, with highly incompetent people who lack technical ability and/or management skills being promoted. The pressure to “eat” hours is huge because most projects are won with lowball bids. This is the only way for directors/partners to meet their goals. There is no system for upward feedback whatsoever. The pay is pretty bad comparatively, raises/bonuses are below market standard. Lots of restructuring and turnover in HR and other internal services has led to tons of extra administrative (unbillable) hours for staff.
