Pros

Good pay, decent benefits, very diverse workplace, no micromanaging

Cons

The self-review process is pretty annoying, but I'm nitpicking

Pros

Nothing to say any positive things.

Cons

Actionet offered job and never gave me start date for last one year. They did my background and inquired about me at client manger and my employer, finally they did not come back with start date as they did not win the bid for the project. After actionet made background checks my employer offered me bigger roles and raise, but I did not accept as I am leaving my current job to join Actionet. Now I am continued with same client for the same role. These guys damaged my credibility and trust with my client.!. Bad thing is they did not respond for emails what was happening. I was interested to join this company as they offered me to work from home option, that made me to notice my current apartment in new Hampshire and signed to move Texas did another mess up my plans. I have lost financially, mentally with attitude of this company!.

Pros

Can't really think of any. Typical beltway bandit. I took a better offer for a different contract.

Cons

After Actionet won the contract from the company I worked for, I got this email: "All, I appreciate your time on Friday to discuss the program and how you fit into the program. Each one of you bring a different set of capabilities and experiences that we feel are imperative to the success of the program. That being said, we are operating in a very competitive government contracting environment. We had to bid this program at a significant reduction in price from the last contract. If we would not have done so, we would not have won. Because you are key to the success, we are willing to have negative profit on each of you, but there is a limit to how much of a loss that we can incur and still make up the difference on more junior roles. Please know that the offer you receive within the next few days will be below your current salary, but that is not a reflection of our perception of your worth, more of the current contracting environment." In other words, accept a 30% pay cut. I found a better offer elsewhere.
