Pros

I first started at ECI in 2006 not yet one week out of college, when the company was at about 12 employees. It was a rough start as a new grad, but also a nurturing environment in which a young developer can grow and thrive in their profession. After a solid five years with ECI, I left in 2012 (in good standing) to pursue graduate studies in Liberal Arts, and after six years of study and the completion of two Master's, I had a great desire to return to software development. In 2019, after a seven year hiatus, ECI welcomed me back with open arms as if I was family. Now with over 100 employees, ECI as grown drastically since my first tour of duty. As such, the overall software development process has matured considerably, adopting and adhering to both Agile and Scrum methodologies. Additionally, the overall atmosphere has become a comfortable, relaxed, and friendly environment with an "open-door" policy with supervisors, project managers, even the President and CEO. This "family-like" ethos contributes to an overall employee satisfaction which can be difficult to find in software development, especially with "big" companies. Overall, the atmosphere at ECI is relaxed, friendly, family-like, and stable. A perfect environment in which developers can learn and grow their career. I am happy to be a part of "Team ECI" both now and for years to come!

Cons

Salaries tend to be on the lower end, but as the market for software developers has become increasingly competitive, ECI has adapted to these changing trends and should continue to do so.

Pros

The only Pro I can mention, is that there are some great people that work for this company. Most of them young, right out of school, and working on getting some experience, not knowing any better.

Cons

Micromanaged, Very High Turnover, I saw another post that started close to 50% turnover rate. I worked for Edaptive for 2 years, and from my experience it was higher than that. I can also tell you from my experience with the company, that is was not due to the employees bad attitude as to why they left. It is due to the disrespect from the CEO, She will talk to you like you are a child if you report directly to her. You owe her, because she hired you. They want accurate timesheet keeping, but if you work more than 40 hours in a week, they will tell you, you can't put that on your timesheet. They follow their own rules when it benefits them. If you are a young male looking to get your foot in the door, that is easy. If you are female, that is a different story. They have used female contractors, but in the 2 years I have been there they will not hire a female employee. No Security for being a government contractor, questionable software, it is all about the bottom dollar, don't expect them to spend a penny unless absolutely necessary. Well until the end of the year, when they go on a spending frenzy for tax purposes. Very immoral, noncompliant company I have ever worked for. Be warned.
