Pros

I actually worked for Lawrence Livermore National Lab but Akima handled the contract. My supervisor at LLNL was the one who supported me. If Akima handles your contract, you may similarly have to work with your work supervisor for job reclassification, new salary, etc.

Cons

When it came to HR, benefits, etc. I found Akima to be subpar. If I called with a question, no one followed up. When I called back, I got different answers before being referred to another person. Considering this is their main function, this says a lot. It may be a different story at other sites and even in other states.

Pros

Hard to say any if at all. I get a paycheck (that took months to be paid correctly)

Cons

No wage increase despite others making way over SCA limits, no adjustments for cost of living, same people recognized for doing bare minimum, insurance premiums are insane, no allowance for unpaid leave, PM totally unaware of what even happens on the contract, no one in upper management takes accountability for mistakes and contractors are blamed, many inadequate hires made just to have a warm body
