Pros
I was hired in late 2012 to join the Technology Group as an Associate.at Booz Allen Hamilton (it seems almost everyone at Booz Allen Hamilton is an Associate).
Cons
Sometime thereafter, there was a statement released by the company that no one below Senior Associate would be affected by a salary reduction due to sequestration --- but guess what? In 2014, I was given the option to take a 20% cut in salary or receive a "Lack of Work" letter. I chose the letter. One of the core values which Booz Allen Hamilton claims to embrace is integrity. I always thought of integrity as being honest. Saying one thing and then going back on your word is not honest. This is a company with a "one size fits all” mentality. The senior associates (mostly ex-military) in my office, who lacked college degrees, seemed to be always chasing certificates that they could hang on their office walls and include in their email signature block to impress others. So, as the holiday season approaches to those who remain at Booz Allen Hamilton, I say BAH!
