Pros

This consulting firm is unique in that its people have confidence and humility, and deep pride in serving government institutions in the States and abroad. The atmosphere is respectful and collegial. People focus on client needs, and tend to have a good work-life balance. Leaders on the highest levels are committed to excellence. The projects are diverse.

Cons

Typical growing pains, but, in a sense they do not compare to feeling like a cog in the wheel in one of the big consulting firms, or having to wear a lot of different hats in a small. Lots of change, but it is moving in the right direction.

Pros

Great corporate culture! Great pay & benefits.

Cons

Current organizational realignment may result in a lot of changes within the coming years. But this may be pro in the long run as they strive for growth.

Been heading downhill since the CEO gave himself a 100% raise, and cut benefits the same year.

Pros

Great people and interesting work. Many pockets of terrific managers who want to do great work and value their people. Used to be able to stay there for many years and still have a good career and perform a valuable service to government clients. Now only a great place to get into a specific field, gain a few years of solid experience then leave to go elsewhere to make a real paycheck and get recognized for doing good work.

Cons

The "new" management style is very non-"Not-for-profit" and betrays many of the founding tenets that LMI built it's terrific reputation on. Regretfully, when Adm. Pilling passed away the Board found it a good idea to hire someone who relishes his self-proclaimed ability to manage and drive organizations to succeed and his more than doubled salary more than the moral and culture of such a top notch organization. LMI is now no better than any other beltway bandit with its bloated executive management (up more than 50% in 4 years) and constantly decreasing benefits and employee satisfaction.

LMI Response

10y

Thanks for posting a review. Change is hard, and often market driven, something LMI is not immune to. Can't help but wonder as a former employee if you are missing out on some of the context provided by the LMI 2020 Strategic Plan and associated changes to our operating model. While true that some senior folks have been brought in to enhance the dedicated focus to service delivery, business development and strategic growth (as well as marketing and communications), proportionally, the growth of consultants has far outstripped growth of management. The ratios of managers to consultants is virtually unchanged. And due to meeting company goals, with seven consecutive years of growth, all employees have enjoyed bonuses, tied to performance.
