Avoid like the Plague

Pros

A few good people. Some flexibility but got way worse over the years

Cons

The company management lacks basic business knowledge. Employees are not treated well and not paid well. The fundamental business model is wasting taxpayers dollars by abusing the SBIR program. No vision for growth and no career advancement available. Borrow, cheat, and steal at the expense of customers and employees.

Smart People, Laid-Back Culture

Pros

The company excels in advanced research and software development across diverse projects driven by the needs of government customers. The culture is very laid-back, and employees are trusted to take ownership of their tasks. There’s a strong sense of independence in problem-solving, which rewards creativity and fosters self-reliance. As a small company with a flat hierarchy, there are no structural barriers to collaboration, making it easy to work with anyone at any level of the organization. The team is exceptionally smart, with highly skilled individuals who bring deep expertise to their fields. Working alongside such talented and driven colleagues fosters growth, sparks innovative ideas, and creates an environment where you are constantly learning. This open and collaborative culture not only encourages initiative and innovation but also creates a close-knit, “family” feel among employees.

Cons

While the flat hierarchy and open culture can be a pro, the lack of formal structure has led to a lack of defined intervals for performance reviews and associated compensation adjustments.

Pros

Fantastic work life balance, great at listening to needs, amazing flexibility, and understanding when life happens. I was able to work up from being a receptionist in college to using my degree to become a Full Time Systems Administrator. They also allowed me to work remotely when life decisions took my family in a new direction.

Cons

Sometimes the communication is lacking.
