Pros

I work as a DoD contractor in a DoD-provided space. Typically in these situations your employer is little more than the name on your check. Not the case with Agile Defense! When they won our contract, their senior leadership flew down and spent several days getting to know us, asking how they could help us and making sure we were all going to be happy. On a previous contract, I never met a single person from the corporate office, whereas with Agile Defense, Jay Lee (the CEO!) sat down with us at dinner, and by the end of the night it felt like I had known him and the rest of Agile's leadership for years. Even after the contract change, they've continued to dote on us with impressive benefits, corporate-sponsored events, and an amazing, interactive community that legitimately feels like my family. During the contract change all employees were given welcome packets including Agile-branded polo shirts. Myself and my coworkers coordinate to all wear our shirts and match on particular days, and I feel a sense of pride knowing we're all part of that family. Absolutely bonkers compared to a normal "badge flip" scenario where nothing changes but the name on the paychecks.

Cons

The insurance is good, but it's with a provider that doesn't have a huge network in my area. Supporting a DoD contract, if something happens to the contract there are no more jobs, but that's just the nature of contractor work.

Pros

I genuinely believe that the company and its leadership care about the employees and tries its best to do what is right for them while still trying to be a successful, growing business. Unlike other government contracting companies, they don't always put profit before people. The company's culture is well defined and acted on by all parties from the top down. As an employee, you are encouraged to provide feedback/input and you truly feel that you are being listened to when speaking with management, leadership, and colleagues.

Cons

The only downside (which might not really be a downside) I can think of is that there are so many great employees who work tirelessly to ensure Agile Defense is successful so a lot of times, you want to match that energy and effort so you may have some days where you work long hours to help out your coworkers because you truly feel invested in the company's and your team's success.

Pros

Agile Defense is a great place to work if you are looking for a company that values culture! The leadership team is great and truly cares about each and every employee. They have always treated me fairly and made me feel like a valuable asset to the organization. The work-life balance is good and the company offers top-notch benefits! If you apply yourself, you'll go far within the organization.

Cons

It's hard to write any cons because I genuinely enjoy working for the company! I wish the public could see more of how great the company actually is, versus having to read negative reviews of a select few, who just seem mad at the world in general.
