Pros

Nice and competent people, especially in some departments

Cons

After the merge/acquisition with/by Simbec, ORION changed completely its nature, its mentality and its core values. Many people complained about the change and the people turnover rose quite dramatically, especially for the lack of clear internal communication, lack of team work spirit and lack of long term management view.

Pros

Generally employee friendly, and being a UK company, they are very caring about the employees with a good focus on work-life balance.

Cons

Sr. Mgmt is short sighted in retaining long term staff when economic issues arise and have been opting to RIF key staff as they don't see value in LT knowledge. They also do NOT listen to specific requests from potential clients when it comes to focus on Bid-Defenses, resulting in unnecessary losses of business as they did not deliver what was requested.

Pros

The people who are actually doing the work are great.

Cons

Senior management is a joke. If you look up their resumes they all come from companies with a toxic culture. They’ve managed to bring that here and hire their buddies!
