Pros

Good exposure to many different projects if in the Washington DC metro area. Good access to training if in the Washington DC area.

Cons

Limited ability to network and train if outside the Washington DC metro area. The firm has really changed since going public and it has lost some of the appeal it had when it was a privately held firm. The focus appears to be moving away from management consulting and more to large engineering contracts and contracts that fill many 9-5 type staff jobs. Benefits are being reduced.

Pros

Strong mission-focused culture with meaningful work supporting national security missions. Great exposure to diverse projects, talented teammates, flexible work arrangements, and opportunities to develop skills across security, intelligence, cyber, and consulting. Benefits and professional development resources are solid.

Cons

The company culture and employee experience have changed significantly in recent years. Earlier years felt more mission-focused and employee-centered, while recent organizational shifts, government spending pressures, and increased emphasis on becoming a technology-focused company have created uncertainty for some employees. Frequent changes in priorities, restructuring, and business decisions can make job stability feel less predictable. Employees may sometimes feel disconnected from leadership, and concerns raised through HR or management channels do not always appear to result in meaningful action or transparency.
