      Stagnant, uninspiring company

      Pros

      They were good with work/life balance issues. They have this idea of compensatory time when you work extra hours, so almost never had an issue with having enough vacation time.

      Cons

      The company is too corporate and straight out of the tv show "the office". Communications are handed down from the top with no explanation of the company's strategic direction and vision. They seemed genuinely proud to be the "8th largest" IT company in the world, and never did management explain if/how they planned to move up in that ranking. Reviews and promotions were arbitrary and often you could be promoted without a pay raise, because raises and promotions were on different cycles!

      Stay Away if You are Looking, Look Elsewhere if you are there.

      Pros

      The management has no clue what you are doing most of the time.

      Cons

      Everything. Senior management is incompetent on a good day. Simply put, this place is a sweat shop and the employees get no respect or recognition. Long hours are expected, with no recognition or reward. Incompetence breads promotion. The company works on a profit sharing perspective where the profitability of your business unit drives the bonuses (if any) of the unit, as such, business units do not work together, in fact, they compete against each other. This place is as backwards as company can be. Through into that they are a disaster in finance and administration. Expense reports are micro managed and frequently mis-placed and/or lost. Continual errors in payrol processing. They cannot produce reports on profitability of clients. It is a wonder that they can figure out a financial report for the stock holders.

      doesnt respect members, poor culture, work space

      Pros

      Steady business as they support the federal government and they always have money. the people are good too. social club is nice. they're generally good with letting you take time off and with the new policy you are forced to take vacation. work is pretty easy to do and they hire most anyone

      Cons

      the culture is pretty bad, very corporate, no feeling of the company valuing you as an employee. bad benefits package, salary isnt great, reviews are handled poorly, office space is bare bones cubicles, not a lot of respect for the normal employee. no innovation, no creativity whatsoever
