Vantaggi

-Good opportunity to learn from colleagues -Offers a good picture of government from the outside -Benefits are pretty good -Firm seems to continue to have a strong reputation among clients and subsequent employers

Svantaggi

- Since going public, leadership has a short term focus - no longer makes investments - Top leadership is out to get the stock price up and then escape, compounding the short term focus to please wall street and shareholders - Much less functional expertise than ten years ago - because everyone is expected to focus on a single client "domain" and be everything for that client - The firm's leverage model went from 50:1 empoyees per equity-owning partner in 1998 to 200:1 or more now - so leadership is completely divorced from client work and daily reality (more time for politics), and employees have little chance to ever make the "partner" equivalent (they gave themselves a title upgrade at the same time they introduced two new rungs on the career ladder, so now partners are "Senior VPs" instead of just "VPs"

Vantaggi

Strong mission-focused culture with meaningful work supporting national security missions. Great exposure to diverse projects, talented teammates, flexible work arrangements, and opportunities to develop skills across security, intelligence, cyber, and consulting. Benefits and professional development resources are solid.

Svantaggi

The company culture and employee experience have changed significantly in recent years. Earlier years felt more mission-focused and employee-centered, while recent organizational shifts, government spending pressures, and increased emphasis on becoming a technology-focused company have created uncertainty for some employees. Frequent changes in priorities, restructuring, and business decisions can make job stability feel less predictable. Employees may sometimes feel disconnected from leadership, and concerns raised through HR or management channels do not always appear to result in meaningful action or transparency.
