STGi took over for a contract for a federal contract in which I worked for 2 previous employers. They had about one month for the transition and did a few phone interviews mainly to learn about the current staff, no questions about me. They had our salary information up front at the start of the month. After several phone calls pumping us for information, STGi presented a 40% pay cut and overall staffing reduction and provided 24 hours to respond. When I did not take the offer they were surprised and the recruiter responded, "you do realize we are to take over the contract next week?"
