Pros

OBXtek is a great company to work for. They started out as a very small service disabled-veteran owned company and have grown immensely in the past 5 years - specifically due to a very successful contract with the Department of State. Unfortunately, this lead to some growing pains (which have been mentioned in past reviews of this company). OBXtek has since figured out how to function better as a larger company and has very capable and enthusiastic employees at headquarters. The company also has excellent benefits and a great company culture.

Cons

As with most government contracting companies, there is a disconnect between the employees on the clients' sites and the Project Managers/HR/Finance teams at headquarters. However, the PMs have recently made an effort to be available more often and to make weekly visits on site.
