avoid if possible - Program Specialist Eccalon Employee Review

Eccalon is a highly dysfunctional company that doesn’t care about their employees. On their website they try to position themselves as an innovative technology company, however they are just a body shop trying to put people on contracts they have won by submitting the lowest bid. The position they described to me was completely different from the job function I ended up doing. I thought I was going to be joining a innovative team oriented project…instead by week one I was reviewing invoices and scheduling meetings. They struggle to do the bare minimum in regards to HR functions, and their benefits package (401k, training, and the like ) is really dishonest. I worked onsite with a government client, and they had no idea how to do remote management. My Pm was a nightmare, and incompetent… Their version of PTO is nonsensical, and is not paid out at the end.
