Pros
SimonComputing’s founder is determined to learn and innovate rapidly to stay above the curve in a competitive tech environment. He recruits bright, dedicated developers who naturally find themselves in lead positions wherever they work. At work, I sometimes hear someone compliment another person by saying “she’s such a genius, you would think she is one of the SimonComputing employees.” And he sends the message loud and clear to each of us that the management appreciates us and considers us like family. The CEO also radiates an appreciative attitude and helps everyone feel at home. They work hard to provide their employees with quality health care plans and other benefits, including 401K and profit-sharing. You can trust this hard-working, empathetic leadership to provide job security and to earn employee loyalty.
Cons
Because SimonComputing is a government contractor or sub-contractor, they sometimes don’t have control over the work environment or stability at the employees’ workplaces. However, they are working toward building up some private sector work that should provide them with more autonomy. And they are also excellent negotiators, so while they don’t have control of government contracts, they find ways to protect their employees.
