Pros

Employees make a career with this company. Low turnover rate Family/ Work Life balance emphasis Observe Government Holidays & NYSE Holidays and office closings Observe Fairfax County School closing for inclement weather Quiet and clean work environment Received an unexpected bonus every year, based off of performance. Significant 1:1 interaction with manager, directors, VP's and CEO. Ric is a very intelligent and well spoken CEO, who understand all aspects of the business and trusts those in decision making positions. Very competitive 401K matching - strongly encourages all employees to plan for their future. Most employees take a lunch break or get away from their desk every day. Seasoned and Experience employees

Cons

Compensation for Non-Financial Planners could be a bit more competitive. With little turnover, promotions are a bit less regular.

Pros

- Great team from department head down - Collaboration is encouraged - Self-starter culture with good room for side projects - "See something, say something" approach allows questioning methodology without a feeling of personal attacks or "dumb questions" and enables team members to support each other in a safe environment - Work from home

Cons

- Executive leadership does not know what they want - Consistent turnover in C-Suite leads to departments acting like small internal companies rather than part of a larger system - Limited permission access for team members means that any absence or time-off can lead to a backlog of deployments
