Pros

-GREAT benefits and location (Reston, VA) -Several programs available through HR/benefits for improving personal health -Opportunities to volunteer in the community through the company -Good work/life balance, overtime is frowned upon unless necessary

Cons

-I never received ONE performance review, either formal or informal, from my supervisor. -Minimal training; I had to go out of my way to ask for additional training (and only grudgingly received it) -Communication between the team and the client was limited to one person only. -The job description I was given during the phone interview was not the job I did.

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.
