Good workplace
Engineer III (Current Employee), Los Angeles, CA – March 12, 2013
Good workplace, but working environment is rigid and doesn't allow budget for training or development. Opportunity to work on different jobs and designs.

Contrator work has no place for advancement. Management was okay to say that the least but they always contradicted what they said.

Challenging work environment
Atmospheric Manager (Current Employee), Afghanistan – March 1, 2013
A typical day at works varies depending on where you're assigned. You may be on a large base or even a small village, so if you're seeking a challenge it's a good place. Middle management tends to be filled with good, hard working, and grounded people that look out for those underneath them. Upper management is sadly a counter-productive and inefficient – more... mess that frustrates and impedes progress. The hardest part of the job is that fact that you are deployed for 6 months before your first 2 week vacation. Being away from your family is the most difficult part. The best part of the job is the privilege of getting to work with some phenomenal members of the military and the government. You truly get to challenge your physical and mental fortitude in an extremely austere environment. At the end of the day you actually have a sense of accomplishment. – less

Typical day of work at LetterKenny
heavy equipment mechanic (Former Employee), Chambersburg, PA – February 26, 2013
Pros: decent pay
Cons: dress code conduct and lack of communication
I would go to work, and have a safety meeting for 10 minutes every morning. I would go to my work bay and get all the parts i needed to complete my task for the truck that was currently in my work bay.upon completion of the truck i would fill out required paperwork and start to assemble parts for the next vehicle to come into my bay. The management – more... at my job site could definetly use work but we were able to get the jobs completed safely and in the required time. the hardest part of my job was lifting the ac condensors into the trucks.It was a combination of the weight and awkward shape of the items. the most enjoyable part of my job was seeing the finished product that i had completed and everything in good working order with no gigs or defects. – less

On the fence
Electronic Tech (Former Employee), Afgahnistan – February 13, 2013

Bad company management good employees
Overseas (Former Employee), Overseas – February 6, 2013
The employees are great to work with. Management is another story. They are back stabbers, sneaky, and if they don't like you well the you probably will lose your job. They hired a bunch of people and then went around and fired a bunch. People do not have job security here especially in maintenance. Overseas you work 12.5 hours a day. If you are in – more... an office no one really bothers you. If you are in a shop they watch you like a hawk. It is worse than the military. This is not a good company to work for. Some people are great and they will keep you motivated to get the contract done when the others try to bring you down. – less

Hwxroe – February 8, 2013

It looks like they maintained the same posture as their predecessor L3 Vertex. A company that has little care for its employees last day in business will be the day the last employee quits. Feel sorry for all the people trapped by the need to make some money to solve which ever situation landed them in such predicament.

Typical big corporation
Project Manager (Former Employee), Virginia Beach, VA – February 1, 2013
Pros: can't think of any
Cons: too numerous to list.
Upper management hasn't a clue how to manage. They make absurd decisions that have nothing to do with making a decent profit. They are a predatory firm that buys up smaller engineering firms for their clients and assets then strip them bare, leaving what was once a decent firm twisting in the wind. Management is "penny wise and pound foolish". They – more... are the Wal-Mart of the engineering world. I can't think of a positive thing to say about them. As far as being an employee, there is NO job security. Layoffs are rampant. Clients nor employees are valued. – less

Poor Mgt and very poor pay
Specialist (Current Employee), Houston – January 29, 2013
Pros: good people working for a poorly mgt office.
Cons: pay, not recognizing good work, poor communication with the staffs
I started with the Houston office in 2011, the moral was very high and the staff was deep with great people. In two years the office has been decimated by mgt actions and decisions. The Houston office has lost in one division over 60% of the staff. PMs and others are running from this office. No one in the mgt team seems to care, the company offers – more... reviews yearly. And they seem not to matter, great reviews equal very low pay increase that does not even match inflation. – less

Great Place to work!!
Team Leader - Camp Phoenix, Afghanistan (Current Employee), Phoenix, AZ – January 26, 2013
Company will be doing layoffs soon in Afghanistan. The hardest part of my job is being away from family & friends. The most enjoyable part of my job is being able to connect with servicemembers.

Great pay, lived in a hard structure, in Asia
Electrical Technician (Former Employee), Iraq – January 25, 2013
Start work at 6am, work until 5pm. Install, inspect safe Electrical work according to European Standards. Management was good and co-workers were great. No day off for 3 months was extreme, the summer heat was pressing. The most enjoyable part of the job was the people that all pulled together in every trade. Working with the diversity of contract employees – more... from all countries and the US was priceless. – less
