Pros

Very flexible on hours. Met some great people working here. Freedom to make mistakes and learn from them. 10$ gym membership steps away from the office, great food choices steps away also.

Cons

Encountered some disrespectful / rude employees here. People who have been at the company / on the same project for 10+ years get away with acting that way. Some teams have to work on older products that are still slowly catching up to the modern world.

Pros

Work from home 40-hr weeks. Never traveling to their main office.

Cons

No raise Team Lead(s) are uninformed, not supportive, aggressive, pushy and not helpful Team Managers are useless, not helpful, do not facilitate problem resolution, do not support you. You never feel that they have your back. Myriad problems exist internally in the team(s) and they do not do anything to fix. Managers are inexperienced which leads to TERRIBLE decisions making it extremely difficult to do your job. They do not hold non-performers accountable. They gossip. When bringing problems and potential resolutions forward, they ignore you. The Leidos company has a small footprint in the healthcare sector and it shows. One of the execs, Scott Gildea, will tell you "Snitches get stitches" when you voice a , concern. He would rather bully you to a point where you stop talking, and make a joke at your expense rather than listen and help an employee. We see it at Town Hall meetings, in his emails to you and in every personal interaction. He would rather boast his title then help make the job a better experience. Analysts are required to take call once every 3-4 weeks for 7 days straight for hospitals they are unfamiliar with. Not knowing build, workflows, users etc. makes it hard to field 10 tickets every 20 minutes and if you don't resolve issues for areas outside your knowledge zone you are reprimanded. Leidos also does not have standard pay practices. During a recent Town Hall meeting we learned that analysts in IL get paid "on call time" for night/weekend hours worked. CT and MA analysts do not get call pay and Scott G. will tell you to not ask those questions. Benefits are TERRIBLE! When you have questions about anything related to benefits, the typical company response is "look it up on the employee web". Benefits for your spouse that "could get benefits elsewhere" costs you an additional $110/pay period ontop of the standard coverage cost. It's a punishment. Benefits for a single/no child employee are $165/week. An ER visit is not covered with a co-pay. be prepared to pay the 80% bill after your visit as they barely cover anything. The company proudly promotes "you can be trained and work anywhere in the company" but the reality is; if you are a healthcare analyst, there is NO work in a mainly government contract based business. In turn, if you are a black hawk software analyst, the company is NOT going to train you to become a hospital software analyst. This has never happened but they tell you they will train you; don't believe it.
