Booz Allen Hamilton – “Great Place to Work”

Pros

Booz Allen Hamilton is a top employer in the DC area and a premier consulting firm to the US Government. It continues to experience rapid growth and a diverse workforce. The outlook for continued growth looks strong in the Nation's Capital economy, which is protected in part from national issues.

Cons

Downsides are limited and depend entirely on your personal experience. Strong performers are rewarded and opportunities for showcasing talent are very open. Becasue of the size of the company, the overall high level of talent, and a focus on recruiting top performers, mediocracy will not necessarily get you noticed by senior management.

Advice to Senior Management

Continue to focus on your employees through internal communication and feedback forums, both formal and informal. As the company continues to grow, retaining the small-firm feel that has contributed to the high morale of employees over the past 20-30 years will be an important consideration.
