      A good company to work for, but not as good as it once was.

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Great people, Good pay and Benefits. Equal employment opportunities.

      Cons

      Due to some recent failures (I can’t go into detail), the company has a lot of struggles and unique challenges that they are now going through. Management has not coped well with this new reality and it shows. The result is a suddenly high turnover. A lot of valuable and stable employees have headed out the door thus causing a Brain Drain. In response, IDT has started hiring a lot of people to keep up. The outgoing employees leave with the unknown pieces of unfinished projects for the newbies to figure out. Probably wouldn't be my 1st choice for employment, but not a bad choice either.

      Pros

      At IDT I met highly skilled professionals who are genuinely dedicated to the company, its mission, and its goals. Snacks and hardworking colleagues.

      Cons

      See my advice to management. IPTs, ICs, and most of the middle management are awesome people to work with.

      A Changing Company

      Engineer

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Pay is marginally better compared to other DoD contractors in the area Personnel Managers tend to be involved and work directly with the engineers they are managing/leading Plenty of opportunity to shift and learn different skills and be involved with different projects

      Cons

      Company is growing but seems to be struggling with handling growth Some missteps at higher levels created additional struggles for several teams earlier this year Several long-time engineers/employees have left the company, leaving behind voids that are harder to fill. Its great to hire new engineers but losing top-talent really hurts teams
