Pros
Worked on some great tasks. Tasks were meaningful, important tasks that contributed value to the client
Peers were generally good to outstanding. Overall staff is good to excellant.
Salary was OK. Not the best, but better than most.
Good awards program. I won an award for my work, which was very rewarding.
My superiors were the best. They looked out for me as much as they could.Cons
HR establishes policies and no one can change the policies. If you make HR mad look out, not even your superiors can turn HR around. HR has run off some talented folks which has reslutled in a downward turn for Defense Business.
Policies are made for folks in Columbus and do not always consider the satellite offices.
Be prepared to travel to Columbus a lot.Advice to Senior Management
Show some flexiability in administrating polices. Consider input from the client,, the superiors and peers and not just HR. Understand many people do not work in Columbus.
Look at other firms to copy what they are doing to keep high performing staff.
