Best company in Minnesota - Recensione dipendente - Quality Assurance Analyst presso Altus Engineering

I have been working for Altus for years. I have nothing but great things to talk about them. I have always had all of my questions and concerns listened to and addressed. I have never felt ignored.

Set up for hourly employees to take advantage for benefits. Management is located in another state.

As a contractor with the Army, the work is extremely interesting and the deadlines are very lax, especially for a programming job. Great work/life balance - you are on the 9/80 schedule, which means every other Friday off. It's a small company with a familial feel, which means everyone in the front office knows and truly cares about you.

General downsides to being a government contractor - benefits aren't as good as civilians, and there are limits on what you have the permission to do. Pay is below average. Can sometimes be a disconnect between your responsibilities and what the management perceives you as doing.
