Process engineer - Anonymous employee Scientific Systems Employee Review

- Friendly team - Team is really smart

The position was remote, so it was a bit lonely.

- Flexible remote work policy - Peers are generally kind to one another

- Too many managers, directors, and business leaders means the focus is always on finding new work and never on actually delivering a good product - Some positions have the title "Technical Lead" but most Technical Leads do all they can to avoid contributing in any way to technical work - Extremely disorganized and fragmented teams. It feels more like you're working as an independent contractor than as a full-time employee at an established organization - Very misleading in the type of work the company claims to do. A lot of the work they claim credit for is actually performed by subcontractors. In the vast majority of programs, SSCI simply acts as a middleman for companies doing the real innovation - Project leaders cycle between extreme micromanagement and complete abandonment of their project team - Executives seem to spend most of the day reading news articles and surfing through LinkedIn
