Pros

Potential good introduction into federal contracting, field teams seem to have decent leaders in place on contract.

Cons

Disgraceful corporate team. HQ team does not realize that employees are present for meetings in shared space and overhear corporate staff speaking ill of one another. I was very shocked to see a lack of knowledge in HR and Finance. Perhaps interns are used for benefits and accounting which may attribute to the lack of professional behavior. Recent turnover in leadership came with dishonest explanations. Requests from BD for proposals are more demands than requests and team is very aggressive. They may not realize that most employees have a full time job creating revenue for them, many are happy to help expand business but expect respect when asked.

Pros

I never write reviews for companies but felt I should for this one. The level of communication from leadership to consultant is exceptional. I’ve been in GovCon for over 20 years and this is the first CEO that is committed to conducting one on one mentoring and strongly emphasizes internal promotions. Not having additional rungs put on the corporate ladder above you was both unique in my experience as well as appreciated across the company. I saw some previous reviews about communication and they strike me as being written by someone who hasn’t been in the corporate world for long enough to understand how PotomacWave is leaps and bounds above ANY company my associates and I have ever worked for with regards to corporate leadership and communication.

Cons

The company is committed to community outreach but it does not offer a paid volunteer/day off for me to volunteer at my son’s school, for example. Few companies do but I think that to be a nice perk.
