Please give us a one liner to describe this review.

"Amster is an awful place to work for an attorney looking to advance his career."

What do you like about working at Amster Rothstein & Ebenstein?

"Most of the associates and staff are good people and are great to work with"

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Keep looking unless you are looking for temporary employment or don't care about career advancement"

What don't you like about working at Amster Rothstein & Ebenstein?

"the pyramid structure of the firm makes it very difficult to advance in the firm and also very difficult to get good and meaningful work as everything is micromanaged by more than one partner. Even e-mails to clients are rewritten more than 2-3 times before they are sent. Of course being billed throughout."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Have some employee loyalty and better training for associates. Give associates the opportunity to argue in court, depose parties and have more meaningful work while understanding the entire picture of a case."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Show some employee loyalty and focus on training and explaining the entire case landscape to associates rather than throwing them into a deep pit with no knowledge"

"Seriously, no one cares. If you have an issue, management does not bother to ask what is going on to get to the root of the problem, or to help. They would rather cut off your head if you mess something up."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Identify the project managers that do not have a certification for project management, take them out and shoot them. Bring in outside talent."

"The location, Serving Pharmaceutical / Medical Device industries, Perceived Career Opportunities"

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Unless you have a Ph,D. you should not work there. I was naive when I was hired as an Associate there. It's a revolving door there because OSG uses people. They will hire you, and then before 60 days elapses they will tell you they are Eliminating your position. I was told my termination had nothing to do with my performance...that is all they told me before they escorted me out. I was shaking from the shock, and wish I never applied to work there in the first place"

"No support from Management, People are constantly working behind schedule, Intimidation is frequently used to conjure employees to work 15+ hours daily"

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Treat people with respect, and take responsibility for work YOU said YOU would get done."

Associate at Booz Allen Hamilton
in Honolulu, HI

Please give us a one liner to describe this review.

"Retired military good ol' boys made this job hell."

What do you like about working at Booz Allen Hamilton?

"The compensation packages are higher than most other government contractors, and it's well-deserved! I worked with experienced, amazingly brilliant, innovative people, unlike the barely-graduated, Freddy-fly-by-nights typical of companies like SAIC. When I worked for BAH, the focus was on hiring an employee to be developed, not just used for one contract gig and tossed aside. Lots of opportunities for professional development, and the employee review system is fair."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Be aware that you're getting into a company that, while handsome in its compensation package, will demand a LOT of you outside of your billable hours. They really do expect you to socialize, go for drinks, golf, participate in community events and those mandatory fun picnics. You're also expected to participate in employee organizations, do more education and continued training, whether you need it or have time or not. For all BAH touts its work-life balance, there isn't much room for the life part."

What don't you like about working at Booz Allen Hamilton?

"The culture at regional offices, particularly those in the public sector division, is not healthy. A plethora of retired military good ol' boys makes the work environment downright hostile to women, LGBT people, and anyone not an arch-conservative. If you work here and you're not a straight, white, nominally Christian male with a Republican voter registration, be prepared to shut up, nod, and kiss a lot of ass, particularly if you're client-site based rather than at the home office."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Stop worrying so much about appearances and focus on substance."

Associate at Booz Allen Hamilton
in Martinsburg, WV

What do you like about working at Booz Allen Hamilton?

"The people I work with are exceptional and very easy to work with in a team."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Great company to work for if you have a solid contract, but can be very shaky if you contracts are not managed well and you have to move around frequently."

What don't you like about working at Booz Allen Hamilton?

"Contracts seem hard to find as the government has started to reign in their budget. So this means I now have to commute longer trips."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Just be open when things look bad; it just makes it worse when you are the last to know."
