      Contract administrator
      Former employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good starting wage and staff are friendly and work well in a team setting.

      Cons

      If you approach them with an issue or advocate for yourself then management fires you without cause. You have no prior forewarning and no way to discuss issues. There is no feedback from anyone. The same individual who fires you says they are going to look into things and help you but they don't. If you go against her views she just lets people go. No opportunity to find out what you may have done wrong or to help you improve. They do this to people who have been with the company for years. Not an employer that you can trust.

      Employees are managed by Military personnel. The company's focus is entirely one way - what does the Military need? They do not care about their employees - we're all just butts in seats.
