Pros

Nothing that differentiates LMI from the competition

Cons

They act like any other cutthroat consulting firm while hiding behind the facade of being not-for profit. If you look at their website, they continually stress that being not for profit separates them from the competition, because being not for profit makes them mission-focused. Talk is cheap. LMI management, like the management of every other government consulting firm, is in it for the money, and they will not hesitate to compromise their objectivity if the price is right. Example: Customs and Border Protection. It's been well-documented that building Donald Trump's Wall is a boondoggle that will not solve the immigration problems at the Mexico border. Yet LMI has led the effort to select the best wall designs. Why? Because there's money to be made. Objectivity goes out the window when there's a large dollar RFP to be won. If you'd like to work at a firm with a great elevator pitch that never goes beyond the elevator, LMI is the place for you!

Pros

Collaborative and mission-focused culture with a very smart workforce. Employees are encouraged to think entrepreneurially and bring new ideas, technology, and AI into workflows and operations. Strong exposure to innovative work in the govcon space, good learning and development opportunities, some workplace flexibility, and continued support for employee engagement groups.

Cons

Employee morale has been impacted by a strong emphasis on profit and growth. There can be confusion around the company’s identity and long-term direction as it continues balancing traditional consulting work with a broader push toward technology and innovation. Some employees perceive a lack of diversity across teams and inconsistency in how leadership opportunities, promotions, and visibility are distributed. Utilization expectations can make it difficult to fully disconnect or take time off. Frequent organizational shifts, leadership turnover, and changing priorities have created uncertainty in some areas of the business, and at times employees may feel like they are walking on eggshells when navigating leadership expectations and organizational change.
