Pros

Good working and deployed staff personnel.

Cons

Company violates employment verification procedures (over-steps verification process and purposefully gives poor and inaccurate feedback regarding former employees). Management is aloof and continues to cowboy decisions. Most managers are under qualified and under educated. The parent company even worse. Top management is packed with former military officers who have no idea how to run a successful business. They treat the deployers like they were still in the military and their health benefits package is ridiculous, in the bad definition. I did three deployments and had difficulties reaching management and always ended up getting home 5 weeks after my each of deployment s ended.

Pros

If you are only motivated by money, then this place is for you. But, be prepared for backstabbing, literally decisions made without a hint of understanding of ground truth and program managers saying, "I'm the alpha male, no one else is the alpha male, there is only one alpha male and I'm it..." Incompetence is beyond comical to the point of unbelievable. When Jason DeYonker cares nothing more than the bottomline it is an indicator for the culture of the organization.

Cons

Organization is solely motivated by money, period! Nothing more. Zero growth opportunities as a contractor. Program manager routinely lies, yes lies and is known as a lier. throughout the company and the client ranks. That he was employed with his pathological background clearly shows Constellis Group is solely motivated by money. Disrespects people and is known to do so routinely. Is allowed to do so cause of the contract is more important than Veteran employees. Does not take are of Veteran employees/contractors. Is not Veteran friendly. You are expected to bend over backwards for the company to fill billeting needs but little to no appreciation is given in return. You are used as a number and nothing more. DO NOT be fooled by false advertising. Constellis Group is 100% NOT Veteran friendly. Is known to verbally abuse employees. Scheduler does not return phone calls or emails.
