21CT has an employee rating of 3.6 out of 5 stars, based on 32 company reviews on Glassdoor which indicates that most employees have a good working experience there. The 21CT employee rating is in line with the average (within 1 standard deviation) for employers within the Information Technology industry (3.9 stars).
Very disfunctional teams, management turns a blind eye, executives in constant disagreement. More than one Engineer in the past 6 months became so frustrated they just packed up and quit one day, without notice and without another job.
The opportunity to set research direction, write proposals, win business, deliver systems to wonderful customers was hard for me to leave.
Cons
Management does not believe in delivering quality and has decidedly moved away from research and development as a focus to basic IT services, hiring people of less quality in the process. Since the goal of the company is to charge the government for every hour of your time, they make it very hard to take vacations or even holidays without making up the time sitting at a desk. The company is clearly not goals-oriented, but hours-oriented.

Thorny problems to solve in fraud and smart data scientists there
Cons
Felt dirty and a little bit like we were wasting a lot of money. I think since the state debacle they've probably learned (I hope) how to operate. It was weird.
