Pros

SMS is a great place to work. If you are willing to carve out a niche you have the freedom to make your job into whatever you want it to be. SMS is a place that allows you to fail to become better at what you do.

Cons

SMS is not a place where you are going to get a lot of hand-holding, Its not a great place to learn a new field. You need to be ready to hit the ground running when you get here.

We appreciate you taking the time to review SMS! SMS is a great company for all levels of employees, however we do have limited opportunities for entry-level employees on many of our federal contracts. Most of SMS technical positions are more advanced roles, however we do provide training and education benefits to allow you to continue your professional growth and advance within the contract and company. SMS has more opportunities for entry-level positions within our corporate office where there is time for mentoring and on-the-job training. Given our growth outside the DC Metro area over the past few year, SMS is looking into other benefits that our non-local employees can take advance of. We hope to be announcing more details in the near future. Thanks again for the review!! We love hearing from our employees! - Melanie Shipley, Vice President, Human Resources

Thanks for the 5-star rating! We're glad you enjoy working at SMS and recognize our employee focus culture too. While smaller contracts may have limited grow depending on their location, SMS consistently promotes from within and offer great training programs, certification and tuition reimbursement, and leadership groups to help professional development.
