CACI International Reviews

Pros

Good company benefits and good pay.

Cons

Lack of investment by company for required knowledge and training. More money oriented than people oriented.

Advice to Senior Management

Think more about the people working for you and less about the bottom line.

Pros

CACI takes great pride in the work it does supporting the United States government. There were excellent managers in my group though I understand that might not be the case thoughout the company. Fair compensation. There is room in the company for those who want a career and for those that just want a job. I would be happy to work for them again.

Cons

The company growth stategy is based on mergers and acquisitions. This creates a disjointed corporate infrastructure. Communication between corporate to middle management and middle management to on the ground staff could be improved. However, CACI knows this is a challenge they continually try to address this issue

Advice to Senior Management

Mr. Cofoni does an excellent job trying to blend the historic culture of the company while also continuing to develop and implement new approaches to supporting their customers. He has been a good steward of the company and appears to be quite fair.

Pros

In a week job market, the government contracts provide employment stability.

Cons

Incompetent management.
Poor benefits.
Treats employees like objects.

Advice to Senior Management

Satellite offices have the biggest management problem.

Pros

My supervisors have all been extremely professional, understanding and friendly
So far it has been my experience that if you excel is your position you can move upward

Cons

The mantra seems to be you join CACI for the benefits and not pay, my experience is that I'm still waiting for the benefits. There is a 30 to 40 % difference in pay between myself and the other junior members of my team, with me being in the middle of the experience range. I was promoted within and they were new hires, both make in the neighborhood of 20k more a year than I do. Ego aside I'm the running joke about "Find away to do it cheaper."

Advice to Senior Management

I really like CACI, I find it extremely unfortunate that I would have to leave the company and than come back to receive market value pay. Don't let CACI be a farm for other organizations to recruit from.

Pros

Large Govt Contractor
Referral Program
Good communication Pipeline

Cons

Pay is highly unmatched to the expected workload
Salary increases are minimal and insulting

Advice to Senior Management

Understand the caliber of your workforce and look more closely at education/previous experience/skills and qualifications

Pros

Management and employees seem genuine and are willing to help each other.

Cons

Once a performance period is completed, future work is not guaranteed.

Pros

DOD work, Security Cleared jobs, so there is some sort of job security

Cons

Need to move to VA or MD

Advice to Senior Management

It's one of big companies, as the work in NJ is being moved out to MD and VA, there needs to planed to get additional work, to keep the talent

Pros

One of the large firms in the DC area.

Cons

Regular "bait and switch tactics." When bringing employees on board CACI HR rep very positive about potential for advancement and moving about within the company. Actually very few internal opportunities and laying off large numbers right now. Supervisors are also a nightmare. Be careful on review projects as project managers can be disorganized and lazy, preferring to be vague and work from home instead of properly supervising a team.

Advice to Senior Management

Better supervision of project managers is necessary, especially at the Alexandria, VA branch. Make sure the project managers are not working from home and taking too many days off as it is detrimental to their teams.

Pros

Time off with no questions asked
Usually easy work day
If you are on a project and not in corporate, typically you do not pay for benefits because you receive a health and welfare (about 3.00 each hour you work)

Cons

Once your in a position, you're usually stuck
Benefits vendors sucks

Advice to Senior Management

Love CACI but it can use some fine tuning. Different healthcare provider will be great so the co payments are cheaper.

Pros

Respectful employees & good benefits

Cons

Wasn't satisfied with the award contract

Advice to Senior Management
