Pros

Remote work due to covid

Cons

Bully culture Incompetent middle managers that have been there for 10-20 years and don't have any concept of the market Terrible benefits Bloated overhead teams that are so incompetent they micromanage to make themselves feel important 3 middle managers to one employee doing the work, all tripping over themselves to feel important Metrics are gamed to tell a story that doesn't exist

Pros

HQ location. VP’s get bonuses. Top performers get raises, even if they are below market raises.

Cons

I can only share my personal opinion of my experience at ICF. First, I don’t believe it will ever get any better. I felt there was years of lip service, but little ever was done to improve the culture. As part of the finance team, I feel I was part of the most dysfunctional area. In my opinion the CFO played favorites and set the tone for the organization. I felt not everyone was held to the same standard. I feel like working for this organization negatively impacted my reputation in the financial community.

Pros

-With the federal government being ICF's largest client, it's a financially stable company

Cons

-ICF assumes its key clients and industries are worthy targets for ICF Next. Wishful thinking. -Multiple name and identity changes in recent years... wallpapering over troubles beneath the surface -A "meh" roster of clients
