Pros

Nothing positive to reflect on on my short stay with Skookum at the Coast Guard.

Cons

You must not have superior knowledge and experience that would over shadow the lead technician. Must be willing to charge time against work not being done. Referring to the US Coast Guard Contract in Curtis Bay.

Pros

I have been with Skookum for over five years and the company has grown into a professional and profitable organization that still puts employees and hiring Veterans and people with disabilities first. There has been an increased effort on supporting and caring about employees as well as helping in our communities. I am fortunate to see where Skookum was a few years back (smaller but still solid) and am excited to see where we are headed.

Cons

Skookum is not a remote/work from home friendly employer. They will allow it from time to time but overall still prefer employees to be in the office.

Pros

I have worked at Skookum for over 20 years. Every year the organization is growing and learning. Being part of a mission "Creating Opportunities for People with Disabilities" motivates me every day. Being a learning organization also allows for creativity, and the chance to make mistakes and learn from them. Continual training, long-term employment and a chance to make a difference in the lives of so many drives me to do a better job because I'm not doing it for myself, I am doing it for every one on the team. I love the management structure, the CEO puts himself at the bottom of the org chart knowing the employees and customers are our most important asset. The team environment created at Skookum makes us all better at what we do as the common goals of the organization keeps us all moving in the right strategic direction. I cannot say enough about how much Skookum has changed my life for the better. Love working here.....thanks.

Cons

No Cons, I see a lot of other companies that do not do it as well as Skookum.
