      Using corporate spyware to abuse employees that won't fall in line with their unreasonable expectations

      Software engineer

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      They do know how to win government contracts.

      Cons

      First of all, they told me I could run Linux and then they sent me a Windows laptop that was completely loaded with corporate spyware. Hiring practices felt deceptive. What I ended up with seemed very different from what I signed up for. Once the government contract is won, they immediately turn around and subcontract it to someone else. I'm pretty sure I was at least three subcontracts down from the actual customer. After they hire people, they run 8 hour zoom calls every day for about a week and they waterfall plan projects, writing individual tickets for tasks up to a year in advance. When I asked them about it, they said "it's what the government wants us to do." By the way- I've worked on other government contracts. This is not a required practice. Inevitably, doing things this way causes them to non-deliver on the project. When that happens, they just blame their subcontractors and find a new contract. All they do is move from contract to contract and non-deliver and middleman things in this way. They will slam together a team of contractors without clear areas of responsibility or management structure. I had at least three managers, but I never really figured out whom I was supposed to report to. When people don't fall in line with their expectations, they get their "bad cop" manager to call them out publicly in zoom calls. They use the laptop spyware to try to embarass you in front of your coworkers by sharing out things that they learned from spying on you. This abuse is how they keep people in line. If you have no problem working for a company with dysfunctional higher-ups who don't know how to manage, you might do well here.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback. While we respect that experiences can vary, several claims in this review are inaccurate and do not reflect eSimplicity’s culture, delivery practices, or commitment to our employees and clients. It's important to share that eSimplicity prime/leads 90% of our programs. As a federal contractor supporting sensitive government programs, company-issued devices are secured using standard enterprise cybersecurity and compliance tools required across the industry to protect government systems, client data, and national interests. These safeguards are not intended to invade employee privacy, but to meet strict federal security obligations. Our teams lead/prime complex modernization efforts across healthcare, citizen services, and national security programs. Delivery approaches, planning structures, and operational processes are often shaped collaboratively with our government clients and partners based on mission needs, regulatory requirements, and program scale. We also strongly reject the characterization that employees are treated disrespectfully or publicly embarrassed. eSimplicity is committed to maintaining a professional, collaborative, and respectful work environment where teams can deliver meaningful outcomes for the agencies and citizens we serve. We do require camera to be turned on during our agile cadence and meetings, ensuring effective collaboration. We appreciate all feedback and continue to evolve our processes, communication, and employee experience as we grow.

      Stay away if you value your work

      Business outlook

      Pros

      eSimplicity is a great place to work if you are: - A North Korean spy (seriously, it's a thing) - "Working" 2 or 3 jobs and looking to add another - Someone who values appearances over performance - The textbook definition of the Peter Principle

      Cons

      It's not a good place to work if you: - Know anything about computer security - Believe performance should be rewarded - Expect leadership to actually lead - Have a sense of humor more advanced than that of a cinder block - Think an engineering company should be about engineering - Care about consistency and rationality

      Thank you for sharing your perspective. While we welcome constructive feedback and open dialogue, many of the claims and characterizations in this review do not reflect the values, culture, or operational reality of eSimplicity. As a mission-driven technology company supporting critical federal programs, we rely on strong collaboration across engineering, cybersecurity, design, product, operations, and delivery teams to successfully build and modernize complex digital services. We believe effective engineering organizations are strengthened — not hindered — by cross-functional partnership, accountability, and healthy debate. We also recognize that high-performing environments require continuous improvement, transparent communication, and thoughtful leadership. Those are areas we consistently invest in as we scale and evolve. Most importantly, we remain proud of the talented professionals across the company who are passionate about delivering meaningful outcomes for our clients and the public through modern technology, innovation, and teamwork.

      Lack of Leadership and Direction – Proceed with Caution

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Some talented colleagues are doing their best to make the most of the situation.

      Cons

      eSimplicity has grown way too quickly without the proper infrastructure or leadership to support it. The company is in a constant state of flux with new leaders being brought in and out, mostly out, at every level, including the C-suite. This instability leads to a lack of direction and unclear strategic focus. This company is primed for a "small to large" death spiral. The turnover is unreal — people are leaving in droves, and morale is at an all-time low. The pressure to perform is extremely high, but without the proper resources or guidance, it feels like you're fighting an uphill battle every day. There's no clear vision for where the company is headed, and it’s hard to get excited about the work when you’re unsure of the company’s future. It's tough out there for many people, but I am looking for another job, and I know several others who are in the same situation.

Our people are proud of the careers they build here, the strong client partnerships we maintain, and the measurable impact our team make every day. We practice our values Be Bold | Be Real | Be Curious everyday as we make lasting impact in critical missions serving the public. We appreciate all feedback and remain committed to supporting an environment where talented people can do purposeful work, grow professionally, and contribute to missions that matter.
