CAMBER Corporation Employer Reviews

I like this company. They have helped me in many different situations. They support my goals, let alone point me in the right direction to accomplish. As, for the compensation. It was good with the old contract, but things will get better as i have faith in my supervision.

I have truly enjoyed my time with Camber Corp. The Camber contract with the Small Arms Readiness Evaluation Team (SARET) is a valuable asset in maintaining and repairing Army units small arms.

I have poured 10 years into this company; I have never seen such inadequate management in my whole life. There is no room for advancement unless you play golf or you’re with the “in crowd- good ole boy group”. I have experienced bad management before but never to the magnitude that I am seeing at Camber Corporation, I love what I am doing but I am very – more... frustrated with the lack of accountability with the management team at my location. – less

After working with Camber as a contractor supporting a particular military organization - I was left with a bad taste in my mouth. I understand the client is always right but how Camber handled their contractors with that particular client was disgusting.
As a female and the star performer in my department (receiving honors and congrats from the client) – more... - I alerted my Camber management about our new designer hire. The person was never qualified a designer and at 6 months he was not performing where he should be to our shop standards. They instead chose to say it was my fault for a person not having these qualities - qualities which cannot be taught overnight (I have been through 5 years of schooling, extra art classes, and internships for all the skills I have acquired and am no where near an expert) Plus the fact that I had to make up for the incorrect hire by doing my work and his, is another matter entirely. To say my personal life during the week in that year was zero is a total understatement.

After that fiasco - there were several other instances of clear 'whimp' management.
Tons of hard work and even praise from senior military staff (our general being one of them) was enough to get me a 'you will get a bonus' but it was ' oh its next month' or 'its in the works'. After almost 2 years of being a senior designer with no raise or bonus (before all this crazy pay freeze now), it was frustrating.
The cherry on to is Camber management will never stand behind their contractor EVER. There is the idea of an open door policy to your manager which is not true. They will not solve anything for you and will not help you at all, what they will do is hang you out to dry. I had email/correspondence and handwritten notes with dates and times to prove my issues before going to Camber (I went to them only once to plead my case) and still I was treated as some stupid little girl who should shut her mouth and look cute. You are better off saying nothing and looking for new employment elsewhere.
I made the mistake of caring about my work and caring about my department. Don't be naive like me!

So just a warning - if you are a woman...think very hard before applying to this organization.
If you are into a company that loves your work and just takes from you with no support system to back you up - then this is the place for you. – less

Everyday brings unique challenges which keep things interesting and fresh. I've been able to leverage my expertise and expand my skills set. The rewarding aspect of working here is the diverse projects that I've been able to work on and lead.

Camber is generally a fun place to work. Most everyone is easy to get along with, even the people who I had a few differences with were very easy to maintain professional and courteous attitudes with.

The people you work with are awesome. There are a government contractor so individual work experience may depend on the position that you hold.

Camber is a wonderful place to work. They provide great benefits and a friendly atmosphere.

I'll never forget the day that I applied for a job with this company. I thought it would be the greatest day of my life; little did I realize it was the beginning of a nightmare that still continues to this day. I had put in 10 plus years at a great company but felt I was going nowhere fast. On a whim, I applied to Camber and within a day, I was contacted – more... by a recruiter. That first conversation seemed to be too good to be true and it was. They interviewed me and gave me an offer that I felt I could not refuse. As soon as I started working there, I realized it was a sweatshop. You were constantly given things to do that were almost impossible to complete without some help. However, if you asked for help, you were looked at like you were a weak link. Management was atrocious at this place. The corporate office would never stand up to the various managers at the site locations. I had never seen such jealousy and animosity towards people that were working for the same company! I knew after a month that I had made a terrible mistake. Every person that I talked to at that place hated it and wanted to work somewhere else. Yet somehow they were always voted to be one of the best places to work in Huntsville...what a joke! At any rate, I was not a good fit for them but they dumped me pretty unceremoniously. Forget getting a severance package at this place...also, they have this arrogant attitude that if you leave them, they will never hire you back! There are a million better places to work out there; Camber is not one of them. – less

The hardest part of the job was meeting the requirements and contractually deliverable products of demanding customers.

Loved working there no complaints. Great pay good locations around the globe If your looking for overseas work.

I worked 4 years for Camber and loved every minute. The work was challenging, co-workers were helpful, fun, and knowledgeable. The hardest part was having to leave due to job being transferred to another state. Would love to work for them anytime.

I enjoyed working for Camber. It's a great company to work for.

Work here at your own risk. When I first started at Camber I tought it was great place to work. About 7 months into the job I got sick and had to go on short term disibility. The company gave me a 30 day leave of absence. If I didn't return in 30 days my position was not gaurenteed. I ended up being out of work for 2 months. When I was ready to come – more... back I was told that the company would have to generate a new offer letter and that should take a couple of days. After a few days I didn't hear anything so I contacted HR. The HR employee told me that the managers didn't have a position for me. I asked does that mean I should file for unemployment and the HR rep said that is what she would recommend.

A few days later the manager contacted me and said he didn't have a position for me but he would try to find me a job in another part of the company. I interviewed for another position with a different manager. I didn't hear back for a few days and when I contacted HR they said I was not the best fit for that position. HR said they will keep looking for me and call me when something opens that matches my skills. They never considered me for another position after that. The really screwed up part is I saw a job posting for my old position about a week after they told me they will keep looking. No one ever contacted me.

My yearly evelauation was great so the only reasons I can think they did this to me is they wanted to find someone they could pay less than me or they are discriminating against me for getting sick. Do not work at this place. – less

Enjoyed working for Camber Corp. training soldiers for a better equipped defense stability for the U.S.A. Excellent management, with great benefits. Unfortunately, contract was moved to Fort Benning, GA and was not in a position to move.

Not a hands on company, far as feedback on monthly reports and general follow up headquarters in VA and I worked in South Florida. Worksite supervisor has laissez faire attitude following up with you about performance. Camber is a male environment not a good place for women to work.

Camber treats its employees very well and they are well compensated for their work.

Camber strives to be the best and it was the also the best company I've worked for.

you work until work is done, anywhere from 3-15hours. Live in hotels out of suitcase, nonstop work environment, people from all over states.

I want to continue working for them. Greta benefits and work conditions
