      Been heading downhill since the CEO gave himself a 100% raise, and cut benefits the same year.

      Pros

      Great people and interesting work. Many pockets of terrific managers who want to do great work and value their people. Used to be able to stay there for many years and still have a good career and perform a valuable service to government clients. Now only a great place to get into a specific field, gain a few years of solid experience then leave to go elsewhere to make a real paycheck and get recognized for doing good work.

      Cons

      The "new" management style is very non-"Not-for-profit" and betrays many of the founding tenets that LMI built it's terrific reputation on. Regretfully, when Adm. Pilling passed away the Board found it a good idea to hire someone who relishes his self-proclaimed ability to manage and drive organizations to succeed and his more than doubled salary more than the moral and culture of such a top notch organization. LMI is now no better than any other beltway bandit with its bloated executive management (up more than 50% in 4 years) and constantly decreasing benefits and employee satisfaction.

      Thanks for posting a review. Change is hard, and often market driven, something LMI is not immune to. Can't help but wonder as a former employee if you are missing out on some of the context provided by the LMI 2020 Strategic Plan and associated changes to our operating model. While true that some senior folks have been brought in to enhance the dedicated focus to service delivery, business development and strategic growth (as well as marketing and communications), proportionally, the growth of consultants has far outstripped growth of management. The ratios of managers to consultants is virtually unchanged. And due to meeting company goals, with seven consecutive years of growth, all employees have enjoyed bonuses, tied to performance.

      Pros

      I started here with no experience in my field of study. They took a chance on me and I was promoted 8 months after working here.

      Cons

      There are some that are intimidated by "the new kids on the block". In a way it is all about who you know and not what you know. I have heard from a lot of employees that have worked here for a great number of years that growth and opportunity is obsolete.

      Pros

      LMI is a fantastic opportunity for undergraduate students looking for a Co-Op. The pay is exceedingly competitive and its proximity to Washington, DC promotes a good work-life balance. I learned valuable skills as a Co-Op that has opened up many doors that would have otherwise been impossible.

      Cons

      Looking to be a full-time employee, I see little to know opportunity for growth. During my time there, I never saw a single promotion from within the company, and divisions within the company have little communication with each other. LMI's senior management is almost a shell, where all the real work and value is within each department.
