CALIBRE Systems Reviews

Pay raises and bonuses are very low

If you're a schedule I employee, the benefits aren't too bad (5 weeks paid leave starting out, matching 401k, ESOP, HSA contribution) but if you're a Schedule II employee, then you're treated like a second class employee. CALIBRE did this as a way to save money on contract bids and shows that they do not care about their non-corporate employees. Cons: -no 401k matching -poor salary - everyone in my office took at least a 10% pay cut with the new contract -2 weeks paid leave after the 10 government holidays are taken out -$0 contribution to spouse or family health insurance plan(s) (i.e. family costs ~$800/month) -Vesting schedule such that you cannot become fully vested until 5 fiscal years in which you work 1000 hours or more. If your 5 year contract is awarded mid fiscal year there is little chance you'll work 5 fiscal years with 1000 hours. -virtually none of the benefits that Schedule I employees get (i.e. tuition reimbursement, spot bonuses for certifications, etc.)
