ATSC Reviews

Pros

Government and federal clients for stability.

Cons

No professional growth and low salaries

Pros

ATSC is a good place to work for a mid-sized government contractor. The new CEO will put them on the right track adn get them back to where they were.

Cons

There is nothing bad from my point of view. It would be nice if there was more communication from management.

Advice to Senior Management

Communcate more with the employees as to the direction of the company.

Pros

Good medium size comany with above average pool of professionals.

Cons

Comany has't been growing in last few years.

Advice to Senior Management

They need to follow innovative strategies for company growth.

Pros

Location in Tysons Corner is good, and many people are terrific to work with and spend time getting to know.

Cons

Significant turmoil, decisions made and changed without communication or regard for employees, undeveloped strategy, leadership vacuum all mostly resulting from constant changes to leadership team. Hopefully 2011 will mark a baseline in the leadership team so that planning, strategy, process and the rest can be contemplated.

Advice to Senior Management

Know the business, take time to know the employees, develop a strategy, work with middle managers to develop a plan that is achievable...then lead, guide and support the plan (and middle managers trying to execute the plan).

Pros

Strong Project Teams and Project Managers. High client satisfaction. Good working relationships within teams and good cooperation and sharing between teams.

Cons

No vision, no leadership, executive team avoids communication and decision making. Poor benefits, and getting poorer. Employee morale issues generally ignored.

Advice to Senior Management

Concentrate on rewarding employees and growing the business instead of ignoring them and cutting costs. Focus on the big things instead of micro-managing the details.

Lots of say in day to day tasks
Some smart folks who like to mentor each other

Cons

Limited increases after reaching certain pay levels
Stressful during task order renewal times, every October
Some uncertainty and turmoil after going public

Advice to Senior Management

Communicate and show a little more to the worker who do the job on client site as that is core business.
