Pros
Having worked at two other consulting firms, I feel like BearingPoint does care about staff. In the U.S., bonuses have been paid for all staff even with last year being a difficult year. The senior leaders voluntarily took 20% pay cuts in Q4 to keep bonuses for junior staff, which is not something I've seen a lot of. Training is really good, with the firm sponsoring an Oxford MBA program and classes at Yale. The leaders across the entire organization are very accessible.
Cons
Like a lot of consulting firms, the economy is tough right now. The good part is there are a number of long term projects, but there have also been people on the bench awhile.
