Pros

Good opportunities for new grads. Unique client work. Opportunities to have significant client impact early in a career.

Cons

Completely different firm since going public. Morale has gone from abysmal to tragic. Senior leadership seems distracted and disengaged from the realities of 2014 and middle management remains excessively large and predominantly clueless. MBA's, subject matter experts, and other specialists need not apply- they wont know what to do with you.

Pros

Strong mission-focused culture with meaningful work supporting national security missions. Great exposure to diverse projects, talented teammates, flexible work arrangements, and opportunities to develop skills across security, intelligence, cyber, and consulting. Benefits and professional development resources are solid.

Cons

The company culture and employee experience have changed significantly in recent years. Earlier years felt more mission-focused and employee-centered, while recent organizational shifts, government spending pressures, and increased emphasis on becoming a technology-focused company have created uncertainty for some employees. Frequent changes in priorities, restructuring, and business decisions can make job stability feel less predictable. Employees may sometimes feel disconnected from leadership, and concerns raised through HR or management channels do not always appear to result in meaningful action or transparency.
