Pros

5+ years working directly for BBNS on overseas and local Government security contracts. I had a good senior project manager who stood by his employees and interesting projects to work on The compensation was decent and benefits were comparable.

Cons

Not much in the way of any efforts to keep/place employees after contract loss. Layoffs are a part of the modern contracting workforce and this company is not immune. Employee contract turnover rate was high and a very real disconnect between upper management and employees created challenging working conditions.

Pros

The data center work itself was interesting and there were opportunities to gain exposure to large-scale projects. Some coworkers on-site were supportive and hardworking.

Cons

Leadership and communication were extremely inconsistent. There was little structure, minimal training, and employees often felt like they were expected to figure things out on their own without proper support or mentorship. Workloads and expectations changed constantly depending on who you spoke to. The company talks about growth, but many employees are underutilized or not actually developed professionally. It often felt more reactive than organized, especially from upper management. Decisions were made with very little transparency, and morale suffered because of it. There was also a noticeable disconnect between corporate leadership and the realities of what was happening on-site. Many employees felt expendable rather than valued.
