Pros

The only pro I could think of was that we were working remotely.

Cons

- Managers that were hired that knew NOTHING about the process. We would ask the managers questions and they would redirect you to your coworker because they were absolutely CLUELESS - False promises. They were so many false promises with this positions. Again, managers would tell you something was going to happen i.e. bonus incentive if you worked really heard, by the end of the quarter the managers would act like they had NO idea what you were talking about - THEY WON'T CARE ABOUT YOU. Because of how everyone was incompetent at ICF, we were laid off because the company they had a contract with didn't resign. They told us this 2 months prior and did absolutely nothing to help us find new assignments even though they said they would. It was absolutely devastating to feel so discarded after putting in MONTHS of work on this project. - They had us to mandatory OT for a month during the summer and we couldn't take time off. This was absolutely ridiculous. - They never told us that there would be times were our project would be "off" for a month or so. They reshuffled us to other projects but that eventually stopped I told my friend who was looking for a job and almost applied to ICF, to NOT apply under any circumstance's and I will continue to tell the people around me to do so.
