- Small company, contract shuffles have happened. Management is trying to fix this. - Benefits do not match the culture of organization. I know management is working to improve these.

Pros

Freedom to bring ideas Getting to work on new technologies Ability to bring diverse skillset to teams High salary I have to assume the issues people are mentioning are regional. I've had nothing but positive experiences with management and the work we're doing. But I am also not working directly out of San Diego. The only downsides have strictly to do with the admittedly real "hurry up and wait" nature of government contract work. But that is intermittent, and in the meantime there is usually work to help with on other projects. I'd hate for talented engineers to pass on an opportunity to work on the at-scale devops transformations that Solute provides, because of others negative experiences I can't even corroborate.

Cons

Poor benefits and holidays Government contracting gotchas It's a good thing the pay is good, because the benefits are... not. And by the nature of contracting work, there can be frustrating downtime waiting for financials to move out of the way of getting work done. But it's not so bad that I'd ever consider leaving.

Pros

Rewarding, fast-paced environment that an aspiring professional would thrive in. SOLUTE’s vibrant culture offers a work environment second to none. With the rapid growth of the company, there are an infinite number of opportunities to grow professionally. I have been at SOLUTE for over a year and continue to be amazed at the quality workforce the company attracts. Some of the brightest engineers in the industry work here! The company goes out of its way to retain its talent even when a contract ends. Companies in this industry quickly cut ties with you once a contract you are assigned to ends. SOLUTE goes out of its way to find billable work. These opportunities allow software engineers, devops engineers, network engineers, etc. to continue to grow professionally. If you are an ambitious person you will undoubtedly thrive at SOLUTE. The company goes above and beyond to properly award individuals (bonuses or pay increases, promotions, etc.).

Cons

Standardization of formal training for new hires can be invigorated. With that being said, I have already seen steps being taken by Senior Management to streamline training for new employees.
