Pros
Akima offers a supportive work environment with a genuinely caring upper management team that is constantly looking to improve the company. In my experience, this has meant rewarding and motivating employees.
The company offers a lot of flexibility for employees where possible. All of the management I have experienced really goes out of their way to give employees the ability to manage personal needs, which motivates me to give more effort and energy back as well.
Since Akima is a parent company with lots of sub-companies in their fold, there are lots of career opportunities and directions for advancement for people wanting to put in the work. Lots of promoting from within to fill openings, too.
Good benefits- in line with the industry.
Committed to giving employees the tools to do our jobs. I've worked at companies where it was like pulling teeth to get the right equipment, software, etc- it's amazing how easy it is here. No crazy red tape- it is a small enough company to be flexible with that stuff.
Cons
With so many different business groups and sub-companies, I'm sure not everyone has the same caliber of experience. It's hard to be consistent with hundreds of employees. But my experience has been fantastic!
