Pros

Some genuine fellow feeling for employees. There are many fringe benefits that they don't need to offer to be competitive but they do, and they encourage us to use them. There is a clear awareness that it is better to keep employees rather than hire new and so there is effort to keep employees on, even when there are not doing billable work, and to provide internal mobility, and many opportunities for continuing education. There's lots of opportunity for remote work and to shape your career and work experience.

Cons

The salaries are not as high as some as their direct competitors - that's fine if you take advantage of all the other benefits but if you want salary first and foremost than it will be lower. It's also a very slow increase and not easy to get raises. They are one of the big consulting companies and so you are subject to the politics of that, lots of defense contracting, and shrinking civil sector, and unsavory capitulating to the administration: e.g. removing DEI language, contributing to the White House Ballroom

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.
