One of the best small contracting firms in DC.

Pros

I've worked at 5 contracting companies in DC, and I can say that OBXtek is one of the best. They are always up front about the option year transition, which is great for peace of mind. I travel a lot and their process is very straight forward and convenient. Pay levels are above average, and they have been flexible with leave and telework options.

Cons

I wish the offered Metro SMART benefits, but many of their contracts are out of the DC area. They are a relatively young company, so certain policies and SOPs change more often than I'd like.

Pros

I just wanted to say thank you to OBXtek! I have worked there almost 3 years, and had the ability to grow and move up in the company. I have also watched the company win several awards over that last few years. Due to excellent leadership, and good employees. When I have had a question about benefits/employment, HR has been very responsive, and informative in helping me. I would definitely recommend this company to work, and have to several people :)

Cons

None that really come to mind
