Pros

Benefits and compensation are good. Work life balance depends on the position. As other employees have noted, unless you are tied to a long term contract finding "billable hours" is difficult especially for remote work.

Cons

If you are not bringing in "billable hours" you will receive an LOW Lack of Work and have 30 days to find a new contract or be let go. Employees are just a number to BAH.

Pros

Strong mission-focused culture with meaningful work supporting national security missions. Great exposure to diverse projects, talented teammates, flexible work arrangements, and opportunities to develop skills across security, intelligence, cyber, and consulting. Benefits and professional development resources are solid.

Cons

The company culture and employee experience have changed significantly in recent years. Earlier years felt more mission-focused and employee-centered, while recent organizational shifts, government spending pressures, and increased emphasis on becoming a technology-focused company have created uncertainty for some employees. Frequent changes in priorities, restructuring, and business decisions can make job stability feel less predictable. Employees may sometimes feel disconnected from leadership, and concerns raised through HR or management channels do not always appear to result in meaningful action or transparency.
