BT is in a rapid growth phase which is sold as a great experience for employees. However, the growth of the firm doesn’t benefit staff or management in any way. What it does mean is that you will be worked to the bare bones. This is a firm that is solely focused on growing and doesn’t care about the people that help them achieve it. They’ll try to sell you on the unlimited pto, however, you’re expected to hit a minimum billable hour goal for the year so you will be expected to make up anytime taken off (LOL). With all the recent mergers and PE buy in, it has created a LARGE divide between leadership and management and an even larger divide between management and staff. I was able to work on two team during my time and what I noticed is managers are not properly trained or prepared for true leadership. They are not teachers or mentors in any capacity. Most teams are overworked and understaffed which means more work is delegated to staff. Bonuses are not given based on performance or cost of living and promotions are not given to individuals who actually deserve it (no matter how well you’ve documented the metrics to prove billable hours or $ amount of business brought to the firm) but based on if managers feel comfortable with you as a peer rather than a subordinate. If you are a minority (POC or woman) be prepared to feel it and be treated like one.
