Pros

I've worked at 5 contracting companies in DC, and I can say that OBXtek is one of the best. They are always up front about the option year transition, which is great for peace of mind. I travel a lot and their process is very straight forward and convenient. Pay levels are above average, and they have been flexible with leave and telework options.

Cons

I wish the offered Metro SMART benefits, but many of their contracts are out of the DC area. They are a relatively young company, so certain policies and SOPs change more often than I'd like.

We were geographically separated from the main headquarters, so we only got to interact with top leadership occasionally,
