Pros

They pay well and really do seem to try and treat their people good. I think that there is a lot of variation depending on what program you are working on. The company is set up like a bunch of small companies that are loosely tied together with some common services like IT, purchasing etc...

Cons

They are a government contractor so there is a lot of uncertainty based on getting the next contract. I have seen most of the people that were there when I started come and go via lay offs. The mid level management organization above me seems to change about twice a year so there is no continuity. Managers make decisions and are somewhere else by the time the results are felt. Then we get new ones that change everything and restart the cycle.

I absolutely loved working at Leidos. The team was supportive, collaborative, and always willing to help each other succeed. There were plenty of opportunities to learn new technologies, take on challenging projects, and grow professionally. Leadership encouraged career development, and I felt there were many paths for advancement. The work environment was positive, respectful, and flexible, making it a great place to build a career. I would highly recommend Leidos to anyone looking for a company that values its employees and provides excellent opportunities for growth.

Pros

Employed barely company is going under

Cons

Leadership have ruined this company. It is currently selling as much property as they can. Letting people go but currently still hiring be very careful taking a position here. It may that them a few years to rebound from this loss of all contracts. That should let you know the company is doing pretty bad.
