You're just a position

Pros

* Salary was good * Benefits were ok * lower mgmt was good

Cons

* Contract work unstable * you are just a number. When your contract is up, it is up. They will tell you that they will try to find a position for you, but that is not the case. You will usually be let go. My advice, is if you work here and you get within a year of the end of your contract. Look for another job. Don't think that they will find you a position. They will tell you they will, but they won't

Big opportunities at a small contractor!

Pros

Management seems to genuinely care for and appreciate employees at every level. Direct managers are flexible and allow for telework opportunities when the position and needs allow. C-level executives somehow remember my name at company-wide meetings that are occasionally held, which is surprising and makes me feel appreciated. I find pay to be decently competitive to industry. Cimarron strives to create a family like atmosphere, mostly because as a small contractor it can be rare to see your company coworkers in a large organization like NASA, aside from your direct manager. Cimarron has an excellent continuing education program - 100% of tuition paid for good grades at a local university's tuition rate... you can't beat a free Master's degree. Cimarron has landed some really cool contracts, with a wide technical scope of work and some of the most prestigious positions among feds.

Cons

Your civil servant counterparts will likely eventually earn more. Layers upon layers of contractor and civil servant management can make crises (shutdowns, inclement weather, global pandemic) or simply HR/work questioning a little confusing to navigate, although management proactively reaches out and works with employees as much as possible - but this might be systemic to all gov contracting and not just Cimarron. We hear we perform well on contracts, but only verbal feedback from programs is typically shared at company wide meetings. The timekeeping system is pretty annoying to use, as it is with many other contractors' - finding out how much comp time I have can take 30 minutes of calculating.

Salary and Insurance sacrificed for Christmas party

Pros

Cimarron is a very friendly company that seems to genuinely care about their employees.

Cons

Cimarron employees got paid significantly less than other contractors doing the same job. The insurance also kept getting worse as years went on. Usually when this was mentioned, they would make an excuse about being a small company and then tell us that at least we had a Christmas party. Each contracting company got paid the same amount for each individual as the others. There was no reason to pay us significant (10-20k) less than other coworkers.
