Leidos reviews

Most positions are period of performance (POP) meaning if the contract is lost you lose your job; no bench and a very passive re-assignment search staff meaning you have to find your next job pretty much by yourself and almost every job now requires TS/SCI . with Poly which is not something you can get or Leidos will provide - they do not grow their employees into a next job or career path. Plus if you work on the customer site you are quickly forgotten by middle and senior management. They have another merger going on which will make things worse in the short term.

The business plan of the company is to hire entry level engineers over experienced engineers in order to charge the customer the engineer rate and at the same time keep its costs down. Because of this , raises are very low, we are replaceable so management does not encourage growth. The managers don't have management experience and there's no sense of seniority or mentorship. Company pays very low compared to other companies similar to Leidos. However it is a good company to get entry level experience and go find something else after 2-5 years. I wouldn't recommend it to stay if you want to make a career out of it. Low level management discourages any sort of contact with higher management. Power distribution and transmission is very boring and can get very monotonous. Management doesn't share information about possible bonuses, instead they keep it to themselves so that management gets a higher %.
