ICF Providing IT Support to Social Security
Java Developer (Former Employee), Baltimore MD –
Pros: free parking
Cons: hours limited to those ssa core hours
I enjoyed my experience working at ICF. The day varied greatly as part of the job was a support role. Were their any issues or did we receive requests for assistance.

My co-workers were good. We got along well.

The management perspective was different in that I really had 2 supervisors. One supervisor was an SSA employee. He was the systems manager – more...  of the application that I supported. The other supervisor worked for ICF. I did new development for the ICF supervisor. – less

If its the only offer you have do it
Consaultant (Former Employee), MD –
Pros: technology, hardware
Cons: management, evaluation
Worked for this company for less than two months I got a 30 day review everything was fine and then without warning was let go for things I was unaware of that my manager never communicated.

In the meeting I explained my case and situation but was never given a full opportunity to do my job or understand the tasks I had to complete. They told me that – more...  I was not developing even though I had only been there less then two months.

Not the ideal situation considering that now I am looking for employment again with rent and a used car that I have to pay for somehow.

My experience was not the best but yours might be different – less

Unorganized/Unprofessional
Research Technician (Former Employee), Martinsville, VA –
Pros: pays more than "some" call centers
Cons: unprofessional, no communication with management, no formal handbook, and the list goes on.
A typical day at work at ICF is simplified in the following statement, "overworked and underpaid." Your schedule constantly changes without notice, no handbook (you are subject to penalty or termination for something you have no knowledge), absolutely NO communication through management. The most enjoyable part of the job is the end of the shift. Overall, – more...  the work isn't hard;however, you are treated less than a dog would be and they are highly unprofessional in all job-related acts. I wouldn't recommend this company to my best friend nor my worst enemy. – less

Research Technician (Former Employee), Martinsville, Virginia –
Too much management. One hand does not know what the other is doing and the other hand does not care.

Strong executive leadership - choose your local leadership wisely.. not always so great!
HR (Current Employee), Fairfax –
Pros: hq is accessible by vienna metro, staff is highly competent, leadership knows the business
Cons: non-transparent, closed leadership; rapid non-organic growth, immaturity of processes
Much of executive leadership team has grown up through the company as SMEs and operational staff, so they know the business well, but they can also be a bit incestual in their knowledge, practices and promotion of talent. Rapidly growing, highly acquisitory, but not great at leadership integration of acquired executives or consolidation of processes. – more...  Weak infrastructure for a company pushing to be $1B in revenue. – less

Karen88 – May 7, 2012

I have been trying to get a job with ICF since I graduated from GMU. I am a Finance major and I would like an entry-level Financial Analyst position. I am aware of the competitiveness and I know that I have the capabilities to be successful in a Finance or Accounting position. I would appreciate it if you could give me any advice that would help me at least get a phone interview. Thank you so much.

Flexible work-life balance, engaging and friendly
Senior Manager (Current Employee), Fairfax VA –
Having been with ICF for 9+ years, I find that it's flexible work-life balance in my line of business the reason for staying. What else keeps me there is the interesting work. People are genuine and nice to work with. My line of business requires team work to complete a project, this requires a certain type of person and luckily we have all the right – more...  pieces. It is a great place to work. – less

ICF International
Project Administrator (Current Employee), Virginia –
Pros: good pay, good people
Cons: difficult to shift roles
Easy to get pigeon holed into position. ICF acquires companies so this might be an issue of the acquired firm and not necessarily of ICF.
