Pros

Only thing was that the office was 30 min from my home, so commute was not to bad.

Cons

The contract was micromanaged, had no family/work balance. contract agreements where changed midway through contract. When addressed upper management/HR would state that they could do what ever they wanted, if a signed agreement was in place. The onsite management refused to be flexible.

Pros

great benefits...while they last.

Cons

Company improves stock positions through reductions and changing of benefits packages. Poor leadership creates a gossipy work environment, thus high rate of churn.

Pros

Decent Pay and Bonus. Some FNS management is decent but far from being good and there are a few open job opportunities within the company utilizing your security clearances but there could be more if they could win new contracts.

Cons

No IT training at all and horrible benefits. So even though the pay is decent the horrible benefits eat up your paycheck. Medical is extremely expensive for a family your paying over 12k a year
