Good people, good balance, bad salary

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- great managers, coworkers and HR people. Many had been at the company for over 10 years - good health and retirement plan - good for early career start for gov contracting work

Cons

- salary was the biggest issue. Far below market rate and barely ever moved. Uncompetitive with other companies especially in major metropolitan areas. Maybe a disconnect between older employees in smaller markets to how the market evolved over time. I was a bit shocked how unfamiliar they were with the salary gap - no promotion over years despite being overqualified for my level - some projects had too many people but I suppose that happens in gov contracting
