Pros

Colleagues are genuine experts in their respective fields and offer a lot in terms 'on the job' learning opportunities - this is especially true for those coming in at a junior level.

Cons

There is a deliberately opaque and confused process surrounding pay and promotions. The company generally requires, at the very least, a masters for an entry level career-job (i.e. excluding interns) which is not reflected in pay for junior staff. There is also a trend at ICF of long hours.

Pros

The only good thing I can say is that the hiring process was very quick and they were eager to get me in the door and started with work.

Cons

Career advancement is non-existent Managers are terrible communicators about direction of the project and how it affects the team Managers have zero people-skills and have no business being in charge of leading a team Feel a sense that the managers don't want to bother having to train new people so they don't help employees advance their career or learn about new opportunities. Get a sense that the managers do not trust employees with important tasks and only delegate mundane and menial tasks to employees
