Pros

The firm has a good reputation in the government consulting area. Clients seem to value the brand name.

Cons

With the splitting up of the firm, huge changes are in store over the next few years. With private equity ownership, there will be an exit in the mid term future. This will change the corporate culture in negative ways. Although there is lip service to "one firm", in reality there are many little fiefdoms. The teams do not interact well and fight for recognition. Industry and product teams do not understand one another. The work is more staff augmentation, as opposed to true consulting.

Pros

Strong mission-focused culture with meaningful work supporting national security missions. Great exposure to diverse projects, talented teammates, flexible work arrangements, and opportunities to develop skills across security, intelligence, cyber, and consulting. Benefits and professional development resources are solid.

Cons

The company culture and employee experience have changed significantly in recent years. Earlier years felt more mission-focused and employee-centered, while recent organizational shifts, government spending pressures, and increased emphasis on becoming a technology-focused company have created uncertainty for some employees. Frequent changes in priorities, restructuring, and business decisions can make job stability feel less predictable. Employees may sometimes feel disconnected from leadership, and concerns raised through HR or management channels do not always appear to result in meaningful action or transparency.
