Pros

A contract company with stable, interesting work in the law enforcement arena; diverse work product and tasks; work locations throughout the USA; various benefit packages & educational opportunities.

Cons

Promotion and/or interaction with other employees/management may be limited depending on location/agency/position; sub-par hourly rate increases; customer assigned tasks are not consistent with company position titles and vary greatly within each location/agency; travel and temporary duty assignments are not shared with all employees.

Pros

Good job for someone just out of college to get experience with the federal government and law enforcement. There are no incentives to stay long term & make it a career - no pay raises, no promotions, etc. But good for the resume and to get a foot in the door for federal positions. Also, position is good for retired law enforcement who are collecting their pension etc. but want to stay busy. The culture of the job is highly dependent on what agency you’re contracting for - DEA, FBI, ATF, USAO, etc. - & that specific office.

Cons

No pay raises. No promotions. Sub-par benefits.

Thank you for sharing your perspective! We agree FSA can be a great springboard whether you’re early in your career or a retired law enforcement professional looking to stay engaged with meaningful work. As a government contractor, career advancement and pay are limited to the positions and locations our customers order; however, FSA provides a variety of professional development opportunities, including tuition reimbursement and training, and we work to increase pay whenever possible. If you have suggestions for improvement, we’d love to hear them; please email us at qc@fsafederal.com.
