      Ok company, limited growth opportunities - Anonymous employee ICF Employee Review

      Pros

      Great environment, friendly colleagues, good place to work for entry-level staff, flexibility with working from home.

      Cons

      Project involvement is based on who you know and who advocates for you. Company is very top heavy with a lot of higher level managerial positions impeding lower level staff to obtain technical skills and be promoted. Thus creating an atmosphere of competition amongst staff. If promoted it is not always based on merit. Extremely long hours with attitude that one can be easily replaced. Lack of communication among all of ICF.

      Dear current employee, thanks for the review. One of the things we wanted to address was your comment about the company feeling top heavy. Our most senior team actually only consists of just a little more than a dozen people, for a company of over 5,000. This could be a product of your immediate situation and we would encourage you to partner with a member of Human Resources to address it.

      People, Mission, Culture, Technology, Remote. You work on projects and technologies that actually impact and improves the day to day lives of people around you, the community and the Country

      Cons

      Pay, No much room for upward mobility. If you are a high performer, you'll struggle as the structure rewards years spent in the company vs level of expertise or experience.
