Pros

A group of people working on small business grants that share the same management and support staff, admin, accounts and contracts. Lots of charitable work.

Cons

Very high overhead and very top heavy where a small number of people are working hard to support the rest who really does nothing. No experienced engineers/managers. Technology, equipment, mentality, and polices are very outdated. Lots of talk of change and improvements but always no action. Its also a family business.

CFD Research Corp. Response

Thank you for the review, we take pride in the development and transitioning the technologies we create through SBIRs – but know the limits they provide in terms of growth. We have worked to put the infrastructure in place to expand our research and development offerings – requiring the infrastructure we have put in place. We are working hard to provide the resources our staff needs to successfully support their passions and our customer’s mission – we are disappointed we could not support your endeavors and hope that we are continuing to improve so that the next group of scientist and engineers don’t feel that way. Unfortunately, you probably left shortly before we announced that we are now majority owned by our ESOP. We are excited about that milestone and look forward to continuing the process of transitioning ownership to the next generation of leaders. We do appreciate your insight and hope you check back as we continue to the transition to (and execution of) a growth posture!
