      Pros

      There are no positives working here.

      Cons

      If you are a software engineer, do not work here. Don’t even consider it. Not even as a first job. It’s not worth it. It will hurt your career. This company’s engineering culture is toxic and dysfunctional. The “leadership” is inept and will throw you under the bus. You’ll be pulled off your main project to work on some manager’s latest pet project and micromanaged. When you can’t deliver because they’ve changed the requirements for the tenth time this week, they’ll blame you and write you up. They’ll expect you to understand their entire codebase and processes within the first week and when you ask for guidance, they’ll accuse you of lying about your skills. Avoid this place like the plague. All the other reviews are still valid. Nothing has changed.

      I apologize that you had such a bad experience working at Modus Operandi. I have been with the company for several years and we do conduct the employee net promoter scores biannually and there are so many positive responses to include great co-workers, interesting work, great flexibility and very talented teams to name a few. I do hope that you find happiness with your next employer.

      Thank you for taking the time to provide a review for Modus Operandi. I hope that as we all work together that we can win the bigger contracts and I know BD is working on growing multiple relationships to expand our business.

      Pros

      Good salaries for the area. Nice office space in a great location. Relaxed work environment most of the time, but also very up and down due to the nature of the government contracting business.

      Cons

      Lack of direction and focus in the company. Lots of competing ideas and poor management of them to keep people focused and on-track. The MO at MO is to chase any government program with a check attached to it. If you are a forward-thinking go getter who wants to do really cutting edge work - this is not the place for you. This is for people who want to coast through their career and work on DoD-centric problems, that are often comprised of really bad ideas and outdated technology approaches. You also need a security clearance and must be a US citizen to work here - so that always limits the available talent pool.

      Thank you for taking the time to provide a review. I believe that we have had the opportunity to improve our performance over the last 18 months and management has adopted a new business model that should help them to better realize who represents our top talent. We are still completing SBIRs and recently won a big Metis contract at AFTAC.
