Pros

They give you an iPad and you can keep it after a year with them.

Cons

Lack of communication with Management and the employees If you're not part of their group (mgmt) then you dont matter. They will fire you for no reason. They mistreat subcontractors. They will through you under the bus if you make a mistake. The CEO is also the PM so he wears many hats instead of focusing on the success of his company. They have cameras that has audio in the break room. They have a poor in-processing system. You have to be very mindful what you say because it will somehow get back to management. You have to take out your own trash and vacuum. They will not tell you that they are unhappy with your performance so you dont know if you are doing a good job or not. Only Arena employees get coffee and sodas even though its mostly subs who work in their spaces.

Pros

Small government consulting firm offering specialized subject matter expertise to its national security clients. Arena is truly dedicated to helping its clients achieve mission, which makes it an exponentially more rewarding experience for client-facing employees. Employees feel empowered to stand up for the clients best interest, even if at the potential expense of the firm. Impressive expertise reach-back that far exceeds its physical headcount provides business partners and direct clients with differentiated value in a crowded market. Management has shown repeated dedication to professional development, actively seeking, offering, and funding relevant workforce certification training opportunities. Retirement, heath, and other employment benefits remain highly competitive.

Cons

Like any government consulting firm, employees spend a majority of time at the client site making corporate culture a challenge.

Pros

The company truly cares about their employees and goes out of the way to ensure that each person feels that they can contribute to its success. I truly feel a sense of pride working for a company that emphasizes company values, culture and community outreach.

Cons

I think the last year has been challenging as the company has grown, but a number of positive adjustments have refocused the company.
