Pros

-management is really nice -interesting work

Cons

-pay scale is on the lower side for this type of work -management communicated that when the Feds were directed to return to in office work we would remain hybrid, this changed about a week later. They are flexible, but of other contractors I know they have returned to hybrid -pitiful PTO policy and no separate sick leave, only 15 days PTO a year

Pros

If you are looking for experience in the federal government, but are having a hard time breaking in this could be a good opportunity to add it to your resume and work to make connections from within. The job itself is extremely easy and most of the work could likely be accomplished by any entry level employee so work life balance is great.

Cons

APS contract is extremely limited in what they can do and the growth opportunities are non existent. The communication from management is purposefully confusing and unclear and there is little to no feedback given. There is no one on the contract that can provide mentorship. They only promote their favorites and policies are very inequitably enforced.
