- Management Politics ( Constant politics between federal employees and contractors on a Department Of Veteran Affair Contract)
-It's not always what you know its who you know. ( Be prepared to watch tons of people get promoted in other departments that are inexperienced and only there simply because they are friends with someone)
-Company will find ways to keep you from taking time off ( When placing for time of for a holiday or day off you will not always be approved regardless if you worked the last 6 holidays.
- Training horrible ( They'll hire tons of new hires and barely train them before releasing them to the job to setup for failure and frustrate customers and co workers.
-Horrible at making employees feeling valued even employees who stay with them for long term. ( in till they are about to leave)
- The room for growth is fairly limited depending on the contract you're placed on.
- You will be offered low amount of money compared to your peers. I was making okay money while new hires were being offered at least 7 dollars less than I.
- Company will refuse to fire people who do not perform well or people who hinder the project simply because they are afraid of law suits.
Overall I had high hopes for this company when they first took over the Department of Veteran affairs. They haven't treated me that bad since I was a star there but what bothered me was how they interacted with other employees and co workers.
