Low base salary

Pros

Good coworkers, positive environment, overall low stress

Cons

Very low base salary compared to other companies in the area and hardly any raises even after years of employment (coming from someone who did very good work and was a large impact on the teams. For example, a member on my team from a different contracting company made 30k more a year, we did the exact same job.

Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback. We do a market survey and update pay bands once per year, providing both cost-of-living raises across the board and targeted raises for those falling behind their pay band. Additionally, we always welcome individuals to have an analysis performed on their own salaries, just in case we've missed something in the routine surveys. Anyone in the interview process is of course free to negotiate salary and/or inquire on the process(es) we use to keep current in this regard.

Pros

Co workers are nice and office snacks are good. Do not accept a salary that is less than 70k, its not worth it.

Cons

MANAGEMENT MANAGEMENT MANAGEMENT! I would avoid this company until they get their Project Management group in order. I have never worked at a company were the leadership was more out of touch with their employees and played favorites. It is very clear that if you do not brown nose your boss then you will not have any chance of raise or advancement. They are looking for mindless drones to do busy work, not to improve the way things are done. They will lie to your face and make your time miserable if you don't shut your mouth and obey. If you need a job to temporarily, this is an ok place to work, but do not plan on staying longer than 2-3 years tops.

In the '70s and '80s, the Marines ran a series of successful television commercial campaigns in which they advertised, "We're looking for a few good men." In one of these ads, they announced (to the tune of Lynn Anderson's song), "we don't promise you a rose garden; we only make one promise: we will make you a Marine." UNCOMN is not the United States Marine Corps, but we have a similar philosophy: we'll keep our standards high and our ranks small. If you want to be an uncommon genius working on cool, nationally-relevant projects and contributing to a consistently winning team, we're looking for you. Sometimes, your leader will look you in the eyes and say, "we need you in the office because the project on which you're working requires regular client interaction, teamwork, and the protection of sensitive data important to national security." Some will shrink back from this challenge, complain that those who promote are brown-nosers, move on, and leave reviews that warn others of his ilk that the standards are high. Others will roll up their sleeves, be great teammates, contribute to a winning team, and see a winner staring at them when they look in the mirror. I encourage the thoughtful reader of these reviews to consider the reviewer's feedback and ask yourself, "Is this feedback consistent with everything else I read about UNCOMN on Glassdoor and other sources, or does it read like an emotional outburst from a young man whose work ethic didn't meet the standards of a high-performing organization and thus failed to promote as quickly as he desired?" Draw your own conclusions. We're looking for a few good men and women.

Pros

Great flex PTO policy They act on their core values and prioritize their people

Cons

Now that I’m higher level and have a lot more responsibility and doing a lot more, I thought my base pay would more accurately reflect that. With time I have faith it will

Thanks for taking the time to give positive feedback and provide some areas we might seek to improve. We are constantly reviewing and updating our pay bands, and seeking to correct disparities if/when they arise. Don't be afraid to ask Team Member Services for a salary / responsibility review.
