Pros

Some people are nice. Have great PowerPoints.

Cons

It’s a sink or swim culture here where they care about optics more than anything else. There’s been a lot of turnover and leadership refuses to do anything differently for retention. They care about nice looking decks more than anything else. They don’t properly onboard you or try yo set you up for success. But they’ll definitely make it known if you don’t meet their changing and unmet expectations. I wouldn’t recommend this work culture. They say they value diversity but it’s performative. Their actions say otherwise and have the data to support why but don’t do anything meaningful about it.

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.
