Pros

Skilled, intelligent colleagues. Assignments can be intellectually challenging. Good place to acquire experience early in your career. Early career people can find good mentors....but the pool of good mentors is shrinking.

Cons

Employee benefits used to be a company strength. They've been hollowed out to the point where they no longer provide any incentive to choose LMI over other employers. Health care insurer is United Healthcare, the company who has the answer to all your healthcare needs. That answer is, "No." Very significant gap in compensation between execs and the rest of the company. It's not a coincidence that executive compensation has surged while employee benefits have been cut. If you're not effectively 100% billable, you're out of a job. Better to work for LMI as an independent consultant than as an employee. That way you have a fallback position when your project ends. If you're not early in your career, you shouldn't look for any job security. Company strategy has changed from that of being expert advisors to providing Butts in Seats at federal agencies. Just another Beltway Bandit. Institutional knowledge is quickly shrinking as long-term employees bail out.

Pros

Best company I have ever worked for! The culture is collaborative, supportive, and truly people-focused. Leadership is committed to the mission and it's inspiring to work alongside talented people who are passionate about what they do. Every employee is welcoming and willing to help you, no matter what department or role they are in.

Cons

I can't name a single negative thing about LMI.

Pros

Collaborative and mission-focused culture with a very smart workforce. Employees are encouraged to think entrepreneurially and bring new ideas, technology, and AI into workflows and operations. Strong exposure to innovative work in the govcon space, good learning and development opportunities, some workplace flexibility, and continued support for employee engagement groups.

Cons

Employee morale has been impacted by a strong emphasis on profit and growth. There can be confusion around the company’s identity and long-term direction as it continues balancing traditional consulting work with a broader push toward technology and innovation. Some employees perceive a lack of diversity across teams and inconsistency in how leadership opportunities, promotions, and visibility are distributed. Utilization expectations can make it difficult to fully disconnect or take time off. Frequent organizational shifts, leadership turnover, and changing priorities have created uncertainty in some areas of the business, and at times employees may feel like they are walking on eggshells when navigating leadership expectations and organizational change.
