Pros

The interview process is relaxed and friendly but it is clear the company wants to provide valuable employees. There was a basic skills test and then 2 separate interviews before I was engaged. SM&A has a good reputation with it's clients so you are respected when you deploy to the work site. I prefer shorter term contracts and management has been very responsive to this request. There is no pressure to take a contract you are not interested in. Associates have good access to other SM&A employees for technical solutions and those employees seem happy to help. Management does not bother you once you are onsite working a contract. However, they will step in for you and negotiate any issues you have, if requested.

Cons

I don't have any cons.

Thanks so much for your input. Glad you're finding your experiences with SMA positive. I like your idea about the template for the PPNC documents and will pass a suggestion along to the appropriate parties. Again, thanks! Ajay
