Pluspunten
Nice people for the most part. Work life balance is good; no pressure to work additional hours or weekends unless higher promotion is desired. Getting time off approved has limited drama.
Minpunten
Other accounts may be different. Despite positioning itself as a major player, most accounts have surprisingly weak knowledge and expertise base on client outside of a few niche areas. Very limited / non rigorous problem solving methodology.. most project work involves a lot of slideology with a lot of "consultanty" fluff. Micromanagement is common although how persistent it is varies. Nonethess, very few instances of real trust or delegatio, and no feedback or clarity on how to improve. Leadership at all levels is "involved", but fixated on BD / growth opportunities to please PE masters. Communication is a joke. Beware of utilization - Guidehouse claims unlimited time off but requires you to meet a billable hours target. This sounds fine until there's a snow day, you get sick, or you're on a government contract and there's a shutdown.
