Pros

- Consulting projects with many of the Fortune 500 companies
- Fellow "on the ground" consultant were a great group of people (intelligent, hardworking, fun to travel with)
- You will learn a lot

Cons

- Senior SENIOR management has no idea what they're doing with the firm. More often than not, it seems as though our strategic plan is to "copy Accenture" yet we have yet to decipher what they're good at and how that could possibly translate to benefits for our organization
- The promotion and bonus process is clandestine and down-right silly. You'll be told you're doing an excellent job by management, they'll tell you that you have earned an EE (Exceeds Expectations) or SE (Super Exceeds Expectations) but you will be rated as ME (Meets Expectations) because all EE's and SE's have to receive a certain bonus...which they really can't afford to give out.

Advice to Senior Management

For those interested in pursuing opportunities with former BearingPoint partners and Senior Managers now at PWC and Deloitte, I'd suggest going for it. Those who are responsible for client satisifcation are competent and enjoyable to work with. The bankruptcy and subsequent sale of the company rid the company of the horrible senior manager that was plaguing growth and direction. With the management structure of PWC and Deloitte, I believe the combination of BearingPoint talent and PWC/Deloitte management make for a great working environment, under a name that people are actually familiar with "huh, what's BearingPoint? Oooh, formerly KPMG consulting, got it!".
