Pros

Interesting work on projects that allow employees to build their skills toolbox. Friendly people.

Cons

They underpay their junior staff and don't seem to be concerned when the best employees leave after 2-3 years. Mid-level staff works long hours to meet quick deadlines and mentor junior staff. ICF has a track record of buying up smaller successful businesses to assimilate their business and expert staff. This results in there being extra levels of management and frequent changes and reorganization.

Cons

Pay, No much room for upward mobility. If you are a high performer, you'll struggle as the structure rewards years spent in the company vs level of expertise or experience.
