Pros

The benefits are good. Good health care and paid time off. When I worked there, you didn't have to wait 90 days or more for your health care and paid time off to kick in; that is a very good benefit.

Cons

The company has spent the last two years laying off a large portion of the staff. This seems to point to the fact that they may be in a bad business situation at this point in time. The company hasn't been the same since its founder, Dr. Robert Beyster left. It seems to be going through a lot of growing pains - for a long time.

Pros

I've worked for Leidos for a little over two years as a contractor. The other contractors are amazing people and our PM comes out to the customer site quite frequently. I feel that information from corporate is adequately passed down to us and timelines for training are completely reasonable.

Cons

The position I'm in is kind of a pigeon-hold. There's no room for any major growth unless I apply for a new position or my PM places me on a different contract. Also, the compensation is not competitive with the area or with other companies and contractors with similar experience. Our raises, if we actually receive one, aren't keeping up with the economy. Our medical benefits, I feel, are expensive as well.

Pros

Good networking opportunities, Regional representative work very hard to find job placement for you. Good bonus and salary, however if you have a sizable salary your chance to get bonus on time is less. Independent and autonomous.

Cons

The bench policy changed and became very undiscript and unpredictable. After the merge i was lacking contact and connection from anyone at administration. I felt completely alone without guidance or oversight. I had zero opportunity to meet my new supervisor and have a personal review, many practices such as this became standardized and very impersonal, because of excesive amounts of turnover noone at HQ knew who I was, my skill level, or my specific background. I could go on and on. I am happy to be the with a new company.
