Good place to work
Systems Engineer (Former Employee) - MD - May 26, 2019
Octo is in general a very good company with comparable benefits and decent competitive pay. It is a new company, formed out of the trunk of the CEO's car back in 2006. The company has grown by leaps and bounds since I joined in 2017 (from ~250 employees to approx 450). As some other projects, the one I was on within a year became over budget, hence the layoff. I'm not sure how long employees remain "on the bench", but I was let go since there wasn't an immediate need for me or in the near future.
Pros
Interesting work, decent benefits and pay
Cons
Government contracting isn't stable IMHO
