Pros

This is a great opportunity for someone fresh out of school, or looking for a low key position until retirement (or retired). The job is extremely flexible and allows you to work out of the comfort of your own home and or backyard if lucky enough depending on your radius of work. Teaches great skills and the desire to succeed if you’re competitive. I made level 3 in one year and maintained it for the remainder of my time here. It is feasible!!

Cons

Your view of the company and this job will 100% be based off of your direct supervisor. The company does not care about you, but if your supervisor does, you WILL feel like you are supported and what you’re doing matters. Otherwise, in the company’s eyes, you are solely there to make them money. They will not support you if the client receives a complaint about you. They will throw you to the wolves (the client). Even if the complaint against you is totally bogus, you ARE GUILTY UNTIL proven innocent. Luckily, my supervisor fought for me and believed in me to overturn a bogus complaint. With that in mind, as long as you have a supervisor that supports you and their team, this job will be enjoyable. You can overcome the challenges (which will be different in every area) that come with the position and grow into a high level investigator.

Hi and thank you for your review. Our employees are our greatest asset and we would not be where we are without them. They are our top priority. We are happy to learn that you feel supported by your supervisor/management. That is how it should be! If any of your colleagues feel otherwise, please encourage them to bring this up in the next Touchpoints meeting with management. Our employees are humans with feelings that matter and we never wish any of them to feel like just a dollar sign!

Pros

Good benefits. Good coworkers, and a few good managers.

Cons

CACI tends to pay low so they can win contracts by underbidding the competition, which leads to multiple layoffs until a program is profitable. I noticed that sr. management will do everything to protect the high-paid managers, regardless of competence, like moving them off to more stable programs or letting them charge overhead to work on proposals, while the low-paid workers doing the real work bear the brunt of the layoffs. Then they notice the work isn’t getting done, so have to hire more low-paid workers. It’s a continuous cycle of mismanagement. I actually heard a Sr. Program Manager brag about the fact that CACI employees are some of the lowest paid in the industry. It is amazing to me how so many abused workers can be so loyal to this company. An earlier post was right on when they claimed that managers are arrogant to the point of being cliquish and that we need servant managers. CACI management seems to be very clubby, like a coddled uber class that is free to abuse and berate their underlings at will, with no accountability for their behavior. CACI’s fiscal year starts July 1, instead of Oct 1, as the federal government and most other companies, which means open season for insurance is out of synch with plans held by other family members. This can make insurance changes and moving between the plans difficult.
