What don't you like about working at Booz Allen Hamilton?
"The ingrained corporate culture can be overwhelming if you're not a perfect match. In exchange for what initially looks like great compensation they will extract a few pounds of flesh. Even though they tout it, there is virtually no work life balance. 24/7 is not enough to do everything required. I also suspect a pretty significant racial bias in the overall culture."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Stop promoting the concept of work life balance as your strong point and be more honest. More like you will be expected to work your tail off but we'll pay you well. The 360 review process is great but is trumped by the power of your china-man. Your sponsor or the lack of one determines your success and longevity."
