      Rock Stars and sociopaths

      Pros

      Truly the most capable people this side of DARPA. The company is loaded with Rock Star Employees.

      Cons

      the culture sucks and there's no growth from the inside. new employees see middle and upper management succeeding by treating their subordinates like sled dogs. new employees, believing that this is how you get things done, treat their colleagues the exact same way, thinking it will advance their careers, but the joke's on them and they're not going anywhere. When management is full of terrible people, you're lower-level employees will be terrible people in dead-end jobs.

      Not a women/family-friendly company

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There are a lot of smart people who work there, and the work they do is really interesting. The culture is very collegial. They have a great COO and CEO who have a clear understanding of the company's mission and how to win work.

      Cons

      Women, specifically in the corporate services departments, are not treated well. Management tends to shun women who want to have families. They also have policies that are not family-friendly and have cut PTO for everyone below the Director level. Management does not practice what they preach. They told staff that everyone was getting cuts when director and above stayed the same with at least 4 weeks of PTO. They are so bottom-line focused that they can't see the forest for the trees. They don't value hard work as much as they value the loudest voice in the room. They are more interested in the number of people/dollars they can cut than how they can make people more efficient at what they do to produce a higher return.

      Laid Back Place to Work

      Pros

      This company is great in the sense that you can have a personal life. I found that they were extremely flexible with anything and very laid back.

      Cons

      There wasn't a whole lot of guidance and training when you are new. I found myself bothering my cubical neighbors who seemed too busy to show me the ropes. Also, the rasies were very low.
