Pros

Fedcap employs many individuals with disabilities through government contracts who would probably not otherwise have access to the salary, benfits and stability that Fedcap offers. Many of the dedicated staff who have worked at Fedcap for a long time, during the more client-centered years, remain and are of great benefit to the clients who receive services from this agency.

Cons

Unfortunately, Fedcap has changed drastically under new leadership. The client-centered focus on which Fedcap was once based is now gone. New leadership brought in a few years ago has focused on expansion at any cost and ethics have gone out the window. Staff morale is low and services for individuals with disabilities (the agency's original mission) has been cut at the expense of expansion in other areas.The agency no longers garners the respect it once had by the government agencies it works closely with. Fomerly, the executive management took pride in being a model agency with exceptional service and high marks on all audits and reviews by monitoring agencies. Sadly, the current executive team only cares about doing the minimum to pass an audit or review. It would be professional suicide for a serious clinician to work here.

Pros

Fedcap is growing its geographic and programmatic footprint, has hard-working and dedicated staff, manages government contracts (if you want exposure to government), and has a committed board. Because of its size, there are opportunities for career growth if you're motivated and are savvy at negotiating office politics.

Cons

Despite all appearances to the contrary, Fedcap’s antiquated operational, technical, financial and communications infrastructure cannot support its sudden and rapid growth, attained primarily through mergers and acquisitions. Many of its departments operate without any strategic direction and staff spends much of the time running from one urgent need or event to another without any thorough planning, discussion and evaluation. Fedcap has been known to reassign staff roles arbitrarily and without any consideration of individual career goals or preferences, despite good performance. Salaries and benefits are on the low end for nonprofits and there’s pressure to work beyond normal business hours, reducing compensation further. Its long history with government contracts inherently gives it a bureaucratic and detached feel, particularly to its clients, but to staff as well. In spite of its 80-year history, Fedcap has little brand recognition.
