Pros

Remote work options, socially conscience project work

Cons

New "reward" program gives employees access to a catalog of items and not cash. While cash incentives can be taxed, the catalog options are often less than desirable. They also took away the holiday for the day after Thanksgiving in order to "give" us Juneteenth as a holiday. In an attempt to boost their DEI credibility, they "gave" us a holiday by taking one away.

Thank you for sharing your review. Being able to work remotely is a great perk that I know a lot of ICFers, myself included, truly enjoy. The project work at ICF makes an impact on the world around us in so many ways and it makes me proud to see the company live out our purpose to "build a prosperous and more resilient world for all". Diversity and inclusion are a continuous, ongoing journey for us, and making Juneteenth a US fixed holiday is only part of that. For US-based employees, each year there are 10 holidays that include both fixed (Juneteenth, Independence Day, Thanksgiving, etc.) and floating. The total number didn't change, just the day included in the set of fixed days. I'd recommend you plan to use a floating holiday for the day after Thanksgiving each year to ensure you have that 4-day (or more if you add PTO) break. If you haven't yet, I encourage you to take part in some of the programming offered by our Employee Community Networks who work to foster inclusion, advance skillsets, and inspire career growth among all employees. -LL
