Pros

Company is relatively new. I guess if you stick around you could eventually obtain a good position. There are adv/dis of small companies like this. Millions of start-up companies like this exist in the DC/MD/VA area.

Cons

Tend to see a "bully method" among management to lower employees. Other managers and supervisors tend to micromanage projects and various operations. General employees within the company seem to have "low-education" mostly H.S. or just an A.S. degree. Synaptek seems to target this group.

Pros

TekSynap promotes a culture that emphasizes caring for its employees. The company hosts regular events such as annual gatherings and provides holiday gifts, which help foster a sense of community. Compensation is a strong point, with salary being one of the most attractive aspects. Benefits are competitive with industry standards, including a medical PPO plan, dental and vision coverage, up to a 6% 401(k) match, $15K in education benefits, and 20 days of PTO starting out.

Cons

Leadership is weak and often prioritizes contract renewals over supporting employees. There is a clear disconnect between the corporate messaging in monthly communications and the reality on the government contracting side. Compensation limits, offer letters, and pay structures are frequently used to justify requiring salaried employees to work extended hours and weekends. Leadership does not address the underlying issues and instead continues to apply short-term fixes rather than implementing meaningful, long-term solutions.
