Company fairly good, FCC contract is terrible

Pros

Small company recently bought by NCI...but same upper management still running the division. Benefits are good (better before takeover). Hours on contract are flexible (overtime is only allowed when approved by client).

Cons

The FCC is an oppressive place for contractors to work. Example: contractors are required to punch in and out using a high-tech version of a time clock. Government employees openly express their disdain for contractors. Program manager is detached and not tuned in to the day-to-day problems on the contract, nor does he seem to care about them. Management staffed up the contract too much over the past year, then had to lay off people when the budget was cut (they didn't listen to warnings about budgetary issues). Lots of churn; employees are leaving all the time. Uncertainty about what was going to happen since NCI took over

Good for a couple of years, then split

Pros

Agile, collaborative environment. For the most part, does believe in user-centers design. Good project managers with experience in client engagement. Emphasis on communication: regular meetings, stand-ups, instant messages & chat, and encouraging specialists to co-locate on ad-hoc basis whenever needed; keeps everyone informed and involved. Multiple clients allow for specialists and managers to gain experience across projects—variety of work and opportunities.

Cons

Company does not invest in new hardware or software, leaving itself open to competitors with higher-performance offerings. Rarely sends employees to conferences or education-related events, neither as speakers nor attendees. Great difficulty when negotiating contracts: gives up much to keep clients. No one platform: each solution is custom-built, which has its Pros, yet will tend to make clients wary of becoming entangled. Extremely stingy on benefits and education support for manager and lower ranks, while execs globetrot on income from their work. Very specialized in public sector, with no experience or contracts in corporate or other verticals.

Pros

Coworkers are friendly and knowledgeable. Some client sites are metro accessible. One smaller contract permitted limited off-site work. Two weeks notice wasn't honored.:)

Cons

Client applications use antiquated technology. Employees don't accrue leave for the first six months. There was very little project documentation, and a few time-stressed superstar employees were relied on to ramp up newcommers. Headquarters staff don't interact with the contract staff.
