Pros

Nice benefits and pay is good.

Cons

Lack of money for the people who actually do the work but upper management still get their vehicles, drink Starbucks and get their extras while the grunts drink the bitter stuff and no extras.

Pros

For the technical staff, project variety keeps the work interesting and challenging. Travel opportunities to unique locations can arise because most of the projects are for defense clients. Based on exposure to the productivity and quality work of clients, partners, and subcontractors, the CTC staff is a good team of folks who deliver quality products. Overall they are hard working, efficient, and very practical.

Cons

Although it can make the work more interesting, expect to juggle several projects at once. These projects may or may not be related. Generally, it’s each technical employee's responsibility to find work and associated “project charge numbers.” The constant pressure to maintain full work coverage plus often balancing competing project needs can be very stressful. Most technical staff personnel also have business development goals in addition to their technical projects. Expect to contribute or lead white paper and proposal development as it's primarily the technical staff that does the writing and cost estimates. CTC has been losing business and correspondingly actively cutting staff (and therefore capabilities). Consequently, nearly everyone is worried about their jobs and the stress shows. It's hard to hear much laughter in the halls nowadays due to job security concerns. Plus, as people leave either voluntarily or non-voluntarily, the workload shifts to those who remain, causing many to become more overloaded and burned out. Career opportunities are limited to what project you can get on; don't expect to be asked what your 5-year goals are. No one cares.

Pros

CTC's workforce is top-notch and driven for success. The company has invested more dollars into innovative solutions and training for the staff in recent years. CTC is on the bleeding edge of technology and is providing a great deal of rigor to develop and deploy solutions to improve our clients mission! I am pleased to work for such a company that has purpose and willingness to continue to value the importance of investing in R&D and staff training to keep our folks on their toes in core technology areas! The collaboration between departments is essential and continues to show value in winning new opportunities and building efficiencies across the business units to make smart decisions.

Cons

Continue to build opportunities by merging capabilities across the entire organization (Engineering and Technology).
