Pros

Only one person with this company even cared about the employees.

Cons

Took over previous contract 1 Jan 2018, Cut salaries from 20-50% across the board. Did not take the value of Security Clearances into consideration when bidding contract. Dumped workload of evacuated positions on quality personnel with no plan of back filling positions. Insurance Benefits for family are approximately 60% of one paycheck. Management has very little regard for the employees. No matter how much the customer appreciates the quality of the work being performed, the employee has no value to the company. Everyone is replaceable in the eyes of management.

Pros

I have no pros to working with this company

Cons

Raises, being valued as a member of the company, they hire people with zero experience for the position, then expect you to train them. Expect you to work 2 jobs until they can hire replacements without compensation. Hire people who end up making more than you, I worked the position for 3 years had all the requirements for the job, they hired someone else to do the same job without the same level of experience and paid them 10k more, I guess being a man does pay better 🤷‍♀️

Pros

My last program manager seemed to try, was honest and followed through. But he was the only one.

Cons

- read reviews carefully, the good ones are from OH/home office. Contract employees do not feel the same. Their pay is low, their raises are laughable/insulting. They do NOT follow their own handbook when it comes to the 401K. They will pull your money and hold it for over a month, and they do not match as outlined in thier own handbook. I received tax forms on 9 Apr and was told it was a postal issue. My whole site received forms on 9 Apr. I cannot speak to their other benefits; I did not use any of them. Turnover at the corporate level in 1 years was HUGE, multiple sections with a constant change over - don't blame them. The CEO grossly underbids contracts and then makes the employees take the cut. When you exceed all areas of your appraisal, and your raise is not enough to buy a can of pop there are no excuses. They claim “bonuses” and “perks” – untrue. Now that might be because I was on a contract, and they simply do not care about those employees, but either way SierTek does not treat their people good. It was one thing after another with this company for over a year. I was on a DOD contract awarded to SierTek (as a Sub). When I started, I was with a different company, but these guys were awarded the contract. That means my employer changed, as did my pay. It was a huge digression in company standards. My site was not lead well locally, lacked professionalism, communication, and integrity. Claimed credit for others work. No course of action to fix that known problem.
