Pros

None none none none none none

Cons

It is all politics to get promotion, daily social networking, lack of family time, it is not based on talent. Even if you work hard you are send to the bench for lack of work and out the door of the company. It based on Win win contracts but watched out for co peers managements to steal your work and employees. High deductible on benefits.

Pros

Come here to build your resume and skill set, and plan an exit strategy early. Take full advantage of the 40 hours of annual training plus $5000/year for continuing education. $500/year in the HSA and $400/year to take a voluntary blood test screening if you get the best plan. PTO buyback in the 40/80 hour increment.

Cons

I work in McLean and it was publicly announced that we’re under investigation by the SEC, the DOJ since 2017, and many others for accounting irregularities. The bad press and the leaks are taking a toll on the morale and well being. More workspaces being shut down and there’s less and less space to do your work in a “hotel.” Recently assigned offices are being taken away to only be assigned to principals and above.

Pros

The people, culture, work and benefits are all excellent. Vacation is very generous at the Associate level and having all the Federal holidays off allows for a nice number of 3 day weekends,.

Cons

The recruiting process was quite annoying with emails going unanswered, long delays between submitting the resume, interviewing, and getting the offer. The absolute worst part of the process was that the recruiter obviously had no idea what my resume should warrant salary and position-wise and offered my a salary and position commensurate with a recent college graduate. Let's just say that I have a lot more education and work experience than that. I felt that they had put me in a really poor position to negotiate salary and that the offer was actually insulting. I ended up countering with a higher position and 50% more salary and they agreed without further negotiation.
