Pros

Pretty cool to work here if you don't have big expectations.

Cons

You will get a promotion only if they have a project where they need a more advanced employee (e.g client asked for a consultant so you promote an analyst to a consultant if you can) , the yearly review it's not a true reason for the salary increase or the bonus, what matter is if you have projects (so charged hours), otherwise they will give you some other reasons to not increase your salary. Management is only based on who talks more in meetings, that's the person who will be more like a cop in the team. Everybody complains about how much work we have, but we all have the same work to do sometimes, and someone finish it 2-3 days after everybody did, and then they complain that they had the heavy part of the job. Also, if bearingpoint get a client who needs some consultants to help him with some software (for example Coupa) and bearingpoint has no consultants on that side, it will force you to do a certification extremely fast just to get that client, even if the team has ZERO experiente on that platform. And on the other side, you cannot get any other certifications but the ones that they consider usefull. Please note this review is from my experience and yours may differ.

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.
