Pros

The foundations of the company were solid when I started. They sent nice gift baskets of pies to me for Thanksgiving which I felt was a nice touch. Benefits as a salaried employee were just ok.

Cons

My issues were with senior leadership and with who they were hiring onto their projects. We had issues with several people who were hired onto our team from the Harmonia side (working a government project), that were inept. When myself and my team lead and our PM conversed with higher management, our thoughts were ignored. Additionally, I ended up having to do multiple people's jobs due to the incompetence of the people who were being hired onto my team. As a result, I asked for a raise because I was working overtime without being paid extra, and was denied the request so I left the company. There was no 401k matching.

Pros

The CEO demonstrates authenticity and a sincere interest in employee growth. Note there was a change in CEO (Saboo is no longer acting CEO)

Cons

*The Chief Accounting Officer (CAO) consistently overrides employee authority and dictates decisions instead of collaborating. *Roles and responsibilities shift without discussion, creating confusion and frustration. *High performers' contributions are minimized or ignored by the CAO. *The CFO promised autonomy at hiring but did not uphold that trust. *Executive leadership communicates poorly and unprofessionally. *Chain of command is unclear, leaving employees caught between two sets of expectations. *Executive leadership does not know how to lead anyone. They were plastered with a nice title and comfy salary. Some communicate/dictate to their teams while others do not communicate at all. Worst team I've ever seen.
