"Compensation, as compared to its competitors, is subpar. Like any other company, idiots who have friends at the top get promoted. When you work onsite, you don't get a lot of face time with management and will often get overlooked for promotions and raises. The whole advancement structure is dependent on being nominated by someone else, so good luck getting noticed if you have a lazy manager."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Pay more attention to the people working on site - they're the ones actually making money for your company. Allow people to apply for promotions and make a case for themselves. Stop focusing so much effort on being a big, friendly tent - you have some very talented people in this company who you will lose if you do not compensate them appropriately. Identify your top performers and reward them so they don't go work for Booz."
