Pros

LMI has consistently been fair with clients. When a political appointee asks us to do a study we did 5 years earlier for a predecessor, we show them the prior report before doing it over. When we do a study, we make a recommendation and offer to help the client implement it--but only if they want us to. While LMI did recently trim benefits, they are still above our competitors. They went from 25 days of paid leave to 20 days of paid leave after 15 years. They went from a maximum retirement contribution to retirement of 9% of base pay to 4% of base pay--and they will match up to 3% more if the employee contributes 3% as well. So they will contribute 7% of base pay, and if you put in your 3%, that is 10% of base pay going into retirement. That is not a hardship! Some people are only thinking about themselves, and they are annoyed that the company asked them to share in the cost of being competitive. Yet those same people were very happy to participate when the company had very profitable years and put extra money into the bonus pool. LMI has amazing work-life balance. That is one of the major things that people love. They will work with you to find whatever reasonable accommodation will let you do your work. We have people who telecommute. We even have had people who telecommute from overseas while they follow a military spouse. We have a fair number of people who leave the company and then come back--and they typically are welcomed back as warmly as if they never left. They have tuition reimbursement, and cover relevant certification expenses. The people are almost uniformly nice here. Most people are really engaged in their work and treat others with professional respect and courtesy. Most people here really like the fact that the company is not-for-profit. The turnover rate is lower than our competitors.

Cons

The organization is fairly flat. Because people like it here and tend not to leave, it can take awhile to advance. That's why some people work here for a while, leave, get more senior experience and positions, and then come back into a more senior position.

I can't name a single negative thing about LMI.

Pros

Collaborative and mission-focused culture with a very smart workforce. Employees are encouraged to think entrepreneurially and bring new ideas, technology, and AI into workflows and operations. Strong exposure to innovative work in the govcon space, good learning and development opportunities, some workplace flexibility, and continued support for employee engagement groups.

Cons

Employee morale has been impacted by a strong emphasis on profit and growth. There can be confusion around the company’s identity and long-term direction as it continues balancing traditional consulting work with a broader push toward technology and innovation. Some employees perceive a lack of diversity across teams and inconsistency in how leadership opportunities, promotions, and visibility are distributed. Utilization expectations can make it difficult to fully disconnect or take time off. Frequent organizational shifts, leadership turnover, and changing priorities have created uncertainty in some areas of the business, and at times employees may feel like they are walking on eggshells when navigating leadership expectations and organizational change.
