Svantaggi
As many folks have said Carlyle has sucked the soul from the company and you have old ralph to thank for that. Yes that Ralph who charges the firm to fly him off from florida on a private jet that he owns. Ten years ago when the firm started reducing benefits (anyone still around that remembers unlimited sick leave?) the mantra was "we will never go public." Ralph had every intention of going public and began slowly chipping away at benefits introducing the phrase "industry standard," which been ananthema to Booz culture. Then that became the driver for everything, from letting HR dictate who gets promoted vice the managers and leadership, to the stupid idea of doing away with the "beach" to allow us to get the best and brightest their clearances. Mind you, all this cost cutting did not cut the seniors bonuses. MArgins got tighter, the employees got squeezed and the seniors got paid.
