Pros
A paycheck, but reduced the entire workforce.
Cons
There are my opinions based on facts and experience working for FreeAlliance: FreeAlliance LLC, owned by Mona Kaur and affiliated with 22nd Technologies won the CASCOM G6 contract in 2018. They have cross employees that work for both companies allowing them to qualify as a small business, but seem to be the same company split with two names. They came in and bid the contract ultralow, then protested so they could get the contract since they were the lowest bidder. They then cut everyone’s salary drastically. May of the incumbents left. They replaced some of them with just warm bodies that didn’t have the skills. The few remaining incumbents where tasked with carrying the work load. FreeAlliance and 22nd Technologies did not fill half of the positions so they could collect on the vacant positions. The Gov had many documented complaints on them during their year stint and when the reup came up, they did not renew the contract. This company did not go gracefully…they protested 4 times, resulting in the Gov finally terminating the entire contract and the contractor work force. This left “all” the contractors out of work. They finally dropped the last protest after a month, but as a result, many families were left in the cold during this process. They treated the workers poorly. It appears they are just locust gaming the small business niche of government contracting, bidding super low, and then not fulfilling their requirements. A simple Google search will show they have done this in the past multiple times with the Government and you can see the lawsuits. Bottom line…If you see FreeAlliance LLC or 22nd Technologies…Run and don’t look back.
