Pros
Axient has a host of mostly government clients. I really liked my Axient co-workers, boss, and even upper supervision. HR was super helpful, finance and contracting were apparently very busy, but still found time to be helpful and replied to requests normally by COB. Pay was spot on. Their internal software takes a bit of getting used to for pay, travel and other expenses, but it makes nice reports and help is available.
Cons
Axient has contract employees with the US Army SMDC/HQ at Huntsville. The dynamic is unusual as contract workers are treated as government employees - almost. And the line moves. Job drift was extreme. I was hired as a environmental specialist. That was not what I did, nor any of my co-workers, though that is what we were all (recently) hired to do. To be fair, the Army seems to be confused as to what to do with their environmental staff, with very confused lines of authority within and between commands. It is a disaster in the making. Axient support was always good, but the client had so many internal issues! As with any organization, keep your eyes open!
