Pros

Good, smart people and the pay is very good. LinQuest is like a Ferrari when it comes to the brain power there. No other company has such a high concentration of advanced degrees and leaders in their field.

Cons

LinQuest does not use the talent they have. They are too reliant on government contracts (all eggs in one basket) during this time of defense spending cuts. In the early days they used to be go-getters and risk takers. They tried to reach out for challenges since they were growing. Now, it's more of the hunker down and protect the billable hours.

Pros

LinQuest has a very generous Salary, 401K Match, PTO, Medical, and other benefit package. Another nice benefit is that they provide the funds to employees for Long Term Disability and Short Term Disability so that you don't have to come out of pocket for these benefits. Having these in place is a source of financial peace for me and my family if anything were to happen to me. LinQuest also provides a bonus and profit sharing when available. They have consistently provided raises and promotions for me while supporting my growth as a Contracts Administrator through numerous training opportunities. The work is constant but I am trusted to accomplish it in my own way without hand holding or micro managing from leadership. Overall a great employer to work for who supports their employees well.

Cons

Sometimes the amount of work can feel overwhelming but LinQuest has acknowledged this and is working to provide more personnel for contracting support.

Pros

Good, smart people in a medium sized company of about 400. About 75% have a Masters degree or above so you can get into some pretty good technical discussions.

Cons

The company has become more political and bureaucratic over the past 5 or so years as the have grown. Employees were given pay cuts or freezes while the CEO gave himself a $100K raise. Not cool! There also aren't too many different projects to work on. Most of the work is paperwork without getting to see the product you are working on.
