Good planning. Stable work.

Business Outlook

Pros

Planning is done well enough that we rarely have surprises mid sprint that require devs to work long hours or to make compromises that seriously hinder future development. The engineering leadership is solid and motivated to use modern tech. They listen to recommendations made by devs and will work to implement improvements when possible. The overall culture is collaborative and humble and in short, people are typically more interested in getting to the right answer rather than sounding more intelligent than one another.

Cons

The pay could be more competitive.

ICF Response

We are happy to hear that you are having a good experience at ICF and within your team. We recognize that competitive compensation is a key priority for employees, and we regularly assess our salary structures to ensure alignment with industry standards and market conditions. Since we negotiate contracts and choose projects that align with our values, salaries can vary based on the client’s budget and the specific assignments. If you believe your compensation requires further review, we encourage you to have an impact conversation with your manager to explore the steps necessary to align your compensation with your career goals. --- SS
