Pros

the people are pretty nice overall

Cons

the company only cares about growing their portfolios and getting awards and more work but have grown too big too quickly and now it shows because they dont have enough support staff like finance, procurement, and travel to accommodate the load. Turnover is high because everyone gets burnt out and realizes they deserve better pay for the amount of work they're doing. CRDF doesnt have the infrastructure or the internal processes to support the work they do and they are NOT prioritizing fixing it and making it better and havent in the 3+ years I've been here and anyone in a supporting administrative role (not project lead or associate) needs to stay far far away.

We're all affected by these extreme changes in the US government so it's a bit stressful to try and diversify our portfolio quickly
