ICF reviews

Poor work life balance, managers expect you to work long hours and over weekends. They humiliate you publicly, threaten you and make you feel depressed. I have not seen a workplace that treats their employees so badly. Probbaly which is why the employee turnover is high in almost all the departments and at all levels, from leadership to the analyst level. Our group's leadership has been a musical chair, the person changed almost every year. As a consequence group's strategy keeps changing, no solid and sound direction. Poor health and welfare benefits. Health insurance premium, portion that comes out of employee's paycheck, is quite high and keeps rising every year. No sick days, only PTO. Place stinks of dirty politics. Bad culture of throwing colleagues under the bus. No career coaching and no focus on individual's career development.

Salary, Salary, Salary. While upper management does speak with employee's it does not seem to act on some of the systemic issues, as it will ask about the problem and then when they look for a solution they do not always consult those of which the policy effects.
