Pros

Currently, the company is very big and has a good reputation which is great for your resume. You meet a lot of different peope so that helps out your network.

Cons

The company hires too many people with not enough projects leading to layoffs. You usually end up on a project you not aligned with your experience. You also have to interview for new projects as of you're applying to a new job which makes it very exhausting.

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.
