I wish zero stars were an option. - Anonymous employee Akimeka Employee Review

So, this is a Federal consulting company, and some employees work onsite at military or Federal agencies. I'm willing to guess that those people are leaving the better reviews, since, for them, Akimeka management consists of their personal manager, as probably very few people have insight into what happens with the actual management team headquartered in Florida. Some of the onsite managers are pretty good. Anybody competent, with experience in a few different successful companies, will pretty much instantly see that there are a lot of problems with the skill sets (or lack thereof) of the management team. In short, this is a company that has been living off earmarks by being a Hawaii-based company; but those handouts are drying up. Their CEO is a former financial manager who knows nothing of strategy and is certainly not of the caliber of management who could successfully navigate the complexities of surviving as a large business in the cutthroat Federal market. The upper management team appears to be all homegrown staff who have been promoted into their positions and are "learning on the job," so to speak. They are not succeeding at winning new business, and what revenue they have is mostly due to having won the work under previous conditions, which were more favorable - money earmarked for technological expansion in Hawaii, or work won as small business. It's a tough position to be in, undeniably, but what is really the death knoll for them, as far as I'm concerned, is the president's inability to take any responsibility for the company's or his own shortcomings. Everything is somebody else's fault. Without the ability to understand the drivers of failures and correct course, this ship is invariably going to crash into the rocks.
