Pros

Generally hands off management style

Cons

Will do whatever it takes to squeeze as large of a profit as possible from your contract, including low-balling on salary, despite what your home office requests/recommends based on a statement of work.

Thank you for bringing your concern to our attention. Competitive employee pay is very important to us and we do offer raises based on the project budget and individual performance. Please realize that there are limitations with the amount of salary increases as federal budgets shrink but I would be happy to personally review your situation. Please contact me directly to schedule a personal call on the matter. – Sharon Harrington, OBXtek’s Vice President, Human Resources.
