I love working for life cycle engineering, I was able to travel some when i worked in Norfolk. I got the chance to travel to another state to help out naval boats. The only problem I have is that pay, it does not seem to pay as much.

Pros

Cons

pay

They have an old school great open door policy.

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

Decent pay and benefits, good people

Laid back work environment, pay and benefits are pretty decent, great people to work with. Flexible work schedule and opportunity to work from home. Can get boring at times

Helping our clients improve operations is a big reason we exist, but we can't do that without happy and fulfilled employees. We're sorry to hear that you felt a change in the supportive culture we seek to foster.

Exciting Place To Work

This is a very nice company to work for. They are very personnel oriented. The company is very considerate about vacations and emergency leave options.

Terrible place to work. Don't do it.

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

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

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.

Positive and ethical company

Government contractor and as such all jobs are contract dependent on an average of 5 years. Government sets salary ranges by contract. Company has good benefits, among the top in the industry and stresses positive employee engagement.

Pros

Benefits

Overall good place to work

Great workplace culture, respectful environment. If you work hard there will always be new opportunities available to you. However, increased responsibilities != increased pay.

One Contract Wonder.

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.

Good work place environment

would come back to work with them in the future. Would recommend anyone that is looking for a job in a technical field like radar or sonar for other ships this is the place you would like to apply to.

Least Cost Effective (LCE)

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.

Genpact is the best place to work

I would highly recommend Genpact. People are valued and respected. Manager really look after their employees in term of career advancement. Salary may be little lower.
