Pros

Good professional development opportunities internally.

Cons

Poor Interview process. -They did a poor job of respecting new candidate's time. Managers were late to interview, so junior employees were called in last-minute to stall. Managers brought candidates in for three or four call-backs - who has time for that? Personality-Driven. -Its culture isn't strong enough to combat bad apples in manager, or director positions. Seems like it has too many director positions for such a small organization. Limited opportunities for upward mobility. -If you're happy where you're at, then JPI is a great landing spot. If you desire opportunities for more responsibility, higher salary, and promotion you won't find it here. Questionable business practices. -JPI doesn't have its own physical building in the Washington DC area, so for months managers asked their employees to find and book government conference rooms all-day for internal business (Business development strategy, routine office calls with Directors, proposal planning). -When JPI grew too large in size, some managers fabricated a new small company to compete for contracts. When employees of the new company asked for benefits material, the manager took a soft copy of JPI's benefits plan and slapped the new made-up company's logo on top. This seemed very odd to me.

JPI (Java Production, Inc.) Response

Candidates are often brought back to meet additional stakeholders and team members as the interview progresses, especially for important roles and positions; in this instance, the candidate was so impressed, they accepted our offer and commented on how wonderful their interview and onboarding experience was. The culture is extremely strong and JPI is a well balanced organization, with only a few Directors over several major client accounts. JPI is hiring many more leadership roles in anticipation of even more growth. Our clients trust us to provide outstanding solutions and continuously give us more business. JPI mentors other firms who are growing, but much smaller than we are. Those firms want to emulate our success and often mirror our benefits packages and work closely with us on projects. Because of those strong relationships, we often have teaming agreements with these companies.

Pros

HR makes an effort to make remote workers feel included.

Cons

Mid level management is awful, immature, spiteful, and definitely does not have your back. Directives are contradictory and confusing. Then when not done correctly, the employee suffers. Many people leave within the first six months due to micro-management.
