NYLA laid off their Newport News workforce with $0 severance on 2-weeks notice - Software Engineer Nyla Technology Solutions Employee Review

- cutting edge enterprise DoD data science work - high pay - leadership are good people

- Typical DoD bureaucracy challenges - Onboarding to contracts can be difficult where other Nyla folks are not also on your contract - Feel distanced from other Nyla employees at times due to remote work and folks living across multiple states

They will attempt to put you on another contract if you’re a high performer. HR was friendly

Compensation was lower than the market. Leadership refused to fix it even when they admitted it. What bothered me most: my original offer letter contained no clawback or training-repayment terms. Months into employment, we were required to sign a lengthy employee handbook and a second policy document. A training-funds clawback clause was tucked inside. When I resigned, they used that later-added clause to try to recover training money that had been authorized and paid in writing earlier.
