My Experience at Metis Tech in Albuquerque, NM - Computer Programmer Metis Technology Solutions Employee Review

Definitely has a very good work culture. Joy Colluci is by far the best CEO I've worked under and she really does make the effort to make sure each employee feels valued and welcome in the company, something very rare in government contracting. Senior management and HR are fantastic. Beyond that, most of your experience is going to be defined by the contract you're working on, which admittedly makes up at least 50% of the quality of the work environment. But overall, Metis is a great company to work for.

Pay and benefits are decent, but nothing great. Pretty much par for the course with government contracting, but it's not bad by any means. They do their best to take care of employees during budget cuts, but ultimately the depth of their work is still somewhat limited, so they're may not be as many opportunities to stick with them should the contract get a funding cut.

- Excellent work life balance - work on cool, meaningful gov projects - better pay compared to other contractors - friendly management - small, woman owned business; not a faceless giant corporation

- coolness factor is highly variable, depends on the exact nature of project - pay can be less than industry standard - less structure on career advancement
