Pros

They allow remote work at the company.

Cons

Horrible and inadequate leadership. They lie about contract status. Fire people not off of merit, but off of their own poor decisions. Leadership takes no accountability. Few client relationships and those are being tarnished by poor choices from leadership. It is not a consulting company in the slightest; it is a contracting company.

Pros

I think the concept of Cherokee Federal is a good one, but the sub Preting that used their name was horrible.

Cons

I left a solid job elsewhere to go to Preting - a sub of Cherokee Federal and after a week they let me go saying the customer still wasn't sure what they wanted. Apparently, they were just going to churn people through until their customer figured it out. All they had to do was communicate better with both me and their customer to determine what all was expected. Just not a serious player - husband and wife run - neither of whom ever seemed to be at the wheel. Not accountable or business savvy.
