Work really depends on your team/contract

Pros

Easy access to management, client-facing from early on, education reimbursement, hybrid work environment, some managers are truly awesome people. I learned A TON and it prepared me for future endeavors. Generally a good work-life balance. Good manager support if you have tough clients.

Cons

It’s very team-dependent. Was lucky to be on a smaller team and loved it. Bigger contracts have a lot of cliques/drama and higher turnover. Pay is too low at ALL levels below manager - you’ll be told it is market rate; it is simply not. Folks will leave to go to bigger firms because they’ll get a 30% raise - how are you supposed to turn that down?There’s a huge disconnect between some higher-ups and younger staff.

Pros

Duty First Consulting is great for those starting out in their career in federal consulting. DFC offers many opportunities to gain experience with supporting a variety of Federal Departments, clients, and projects. Managers are also very supportive and open to providing feedback and helping you grow to meet and achieve your professional goals. Since DFC is a small company, it allows for employees to get involved in internal efforts and business development opportunities. The company culture and staff at DFC are very welcoming and provides a lot of opportunities to make connections and bond with colleagues on your team as well as other service lines in the company. DFC also has a good benefit package and offers a lot of options for health insurance plans with some added benefits like the quarterly wellness benefits.

Cons

For the DC area, pay is low compared to other smaller federal consulting firms. If you are just starting out in consulting, the low pay is outweighed by gaining valuable experience to help you succeed and provide exceptional quality work for a variety of clients which can easily be transferred to future career endeavors.
