Pros

* Excels at compiling optimal employee benefit options considering skyrocketing medical insurance costs * Management is reasonably flexible, yet firm with regards to government contract agreements, security and safety awareness.

Cons

Could Better Maximize: EMPLOYEE => Morale, Productivity, Ambition, Effectiveness the sum of which translates to MAXIMIZED CONTRACT PERFORMANCE (Synergistic Relationships, Morale, Productivity, Effectiveness, *RATING*) EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE = contract fulfillment + accomplishments + overall impact to mission/organization + (attitude + aptitude + drive) COMPANY/CONTRACT/DEPARTMENT PERFORMANCE = sum(EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE)

Pros

Decent culture, individual contributors are fine, management is lacking

Cons

The company operates like many smaller companies depending on which business market you are in so your experience will vary. For some, it's the best company, others will say it's the worst; it just depends on your region/group even at the local level. Water/wastewater is a good market in most offices, transportation is hit an miss depending on location.
