Pros

OK for your first job when you might expect a low salary and basic benefits

Cons

Your salary won't advance...they will keep it low to be the lowest bidder of government work. Company is founded in a blue collar mentality and culture which it can't shake. Senior leadership is largely ineffective which has resulted in a number of serious misfires and tarnished reputation to government clients.

Pros

You get to directly impact clients' success. "Decent" pay for the location.

Cons

Leadership will shift blame onto teams instead of taking accountability for their own shortcomings, and Program Managers won't take the time to seek clarification, leading to misinformed decisions and unfair outcomes. They are more focused on internal politics and protecting their seat than recognizing or rewarding actual contributions. You can work hard for years with consistently strong performance and still be passed over for promotion in favor of someone who has built the right relationships with management, even if the have not proven themselves yet. Support is subpar. Employees often spend more time troubleshooting issues themselves than receiving timely or effective assistance.
