Pros

Bearingpoint has some sharp key leaders in Management that are capable of winning big deals. Due to this as a consultant you can explore diverse opportunities, interesting clients, and grow a network of smart people that you'll stay connected with for a long time. The new Yale training program is much improved, and the marketting of what the company does has become much more focused.

Cons

Unfortunately the raises and bonuses were usually pretty dismal. They needed to sponsor more employee morale events from the top down and keep the events going to grow communities. It probably depended on the office you were in, which was one reason you didn't always feel like a part of a bigger team.

Thank you for your review. You refer to a different company, namely BearingPoint Inc. Our company, BearingPoint headquartered in Europe, has been a separate legal entity and conducted a management buyout in 2009. Its development since then is very positive, see our Annual Report: https://www.bearingpoint.com/files/BearingPoint_Annual_Report_24.pdf

Pros

Good pay, good location, other employees are good to work with.

Cons

This organization is deeply mismanaged. The four U.S. partners are consistently at odds with one another and unable to collaborate, often dragging employees into their conflicts. The lead U.S. partner regularly makes inappropriate, sexist remarks, despite being a father to daughters, creating a hostile environment. Employees are encouraged to report issues to HR, but concerns are routinely dismissed, and no meaningful action is taken. Speaking up only puts a target on your back, several employees who voiced concerns were included in subsequent rounds of layoffs. The global leadership team is fully aware of the ongoing dysfunction, especially at the partner level, yet chooses to ignore it in favor of their own career advancement. This lack of accountability at every level makes for an incredibly toxic and demoralizing workplace.
