Great people - Recensione dipendente - Courseware Developer presso Engineering and Computer Simulations

Leadership understands that not all managers or management in their current positions are the best fit, they are very adamant about ensuring their employees are in the best positions that allow them to flourish. The leadership takes all course of action to protect their employees and not just let them go. Unfortunately, there are times it is not manageable due to the inability of the employee.

Previously, some management would protect certain employees and allow the more qualified person to be let go, OR, management would not look at what qualifications or requirements for work were coming up and let go resources that had the qualifications for those requirements.

My time at ECS was great until the last 18 months—I was there nearly nine years. During that time, I grew my career and earned a seat at the table. I worked for and with some of the finest people doing interesting work. I was well compensated, and management made it clear that I was valued.

ECS's business lives and dies with government contracts. You should be prepared for rapid business expansion and contraction—it's the nature of the industry. Management lost its sense of direction around 2022. The business strategies changed, and that elusive thing that made it a great workplace was lost. The transition was painful. I wish I had left sooner, on a high note. - Communication is poor and uneven. For example, I was moved under a different manager without being told. I had to puzzle it out for myself. - Benefits aren't great. For example, it takes too many years to be elevated to the next level of PTO, and insurance is expensive. - Veterans are preferred.
