They have an old school great open door policy.
Mechanical Engineering Intern (Former Employee) - Norfolk, VA - August 21, 2023
The company does everything in its power to ensure its employees are kept working. My program at the company made every attempt to keep me working on a contract. Even after 7 months of no work he was still fighting me all the way until HR under his protect informed him that I was being let go due lack of work. Great Company to be employed with.
Pros
You can really talk with your program manager, even on personnel level.
Cons
Due to Programs Managers overseeing personnel in different parts of the country

Senior reliability consultant (Former Employee) - Charleston, SC - October 19, 2022
What is the best part of working at the company? Helping clients improve their business operation What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Understanding the business goals of the leadership team. What is the work environment and culture like at the company? When I started with LCE the culture was supportive and at the end the culture had changed to billable time and utilization. What is a typical day like for you at the company? Work with a client team to coach and advise

Terrible place to work. Don't do it.
Worker (Former Employee) - San Diego, CA - May 14, 2022
Terrible place. Don't do it. Horrible management. They don't care about their employees. All about the contracts and how much money the company can make.

Great place to work, good culture, good management, flexible, pay could be better
Marine Engineer (Current Employee) - Philadelphia, PA - February 10, 2022
Extremely flexible company with excellent mid level managers, telework options, patient coworkers, and they're often willing to train you. You will rarely have any complaints working for them aside from possibly your pay. Treats workers well. An organized and motivated person will excel at this company.

Great consulting firm for federal government
Engineering Consultant (Former Employee) - Philadelphia, PA - July 8, 2021
Wonderful culture. If I needed to work for a federal consulting firm again I would choose LCE. Inclusive lunches once in awhile. Low fees for health care.
Cons
Not much room to advance through your career other than the position you're hired for.

One Contract Wonder.
Financial Analyst (Former Employee) - WNY - August 24, 2020
LCE had two contracts at the WNY. The government PM was ignorant and a bully. LCE didn’t have the courage to stand up to Th his bullying of its employees. I was subsequently fired with no notice. The day after my termination - I had a near fatal heart attack due to the adverse work environment that I had been working in. Run away run away quickly.
Pros
None
Cons
No management support when it was needed.

Least Cost Effective (LCE)
"Cyber Support" (Former Employee) - Philadelphia, PA - June 24, 2020
Clients will make or break your experience. LCE "tries" to be like family. Very little to no opportunity to grow. Most of it requires you to be absorbed by the government. If it makes too much sense then it won't get done. Management is afraid to step in and resolve conflicts, especially when the client has a large contract with LCE. You will learn very quickly who takes action and who just says all the right things. Document every instance you have an issue with the client to make sure you aren't being looked as the boy who cried wolf.
Pros
Lots of money since the client has a ton of funding.
Cons
Meaningless least gratifying work out there.
