Intellibridge

PROS:
While not exemplary, the pay/benefits were more than competitive starting out. It's a fun place that recognizes birthday, if you let them, & gave everyone a delicious pie for Thanksgiving along with a professional looking book bag for Christmas. 

Agile also provided me with an awesome opportunity to turn around a highly visible service from the shortly after getting hired along with much leeway to bring my vision of the service into reality. I am VERY grateful for that opportunity at the onset.

Throughout my career, I never had a manager who earned my respect as my last one in Agile. My manager was very loyal, respectful, & a true professional that genuinely cared. My co-workers were like family.

CONS:
By far, my issues were with the client. I have very little issues with Agile & while this review is about Agile don't be surprised if I mention the client on occasion.

Agile neither groomed or trained me for advancement. Several former co-workers in either my department or very similar positions agree with me. I did very well were I was at; apparently that wasn't sufficient for them.

As people progressed, either by earning new certifications or developing new skills on their own time, their pay did not grow as expected. Several former co-workers left Agile for positions offering 20%-100% more. Agile is an excellent place to begin an IT career, but I don't recommend staying.

The client rarely acknowledged, let alone approved, of my team's input in meetings or accomplishments. Agile management did advocate for my co-workers & I as much as possible, but understandably sided with the client. 

The client can be difficult; regularly wasting the most productive hours of the day pointing out issues that cost dollars but ignoring proposed solutions that would save thousands of dollars while delivering a superior product/service. My manager, God bless him, ask me to change my schedule to get more work done.

Agile, on their part, agreed to some absurd stipulations with the client that required Agile employees to work 7 days a week. The implication of using personal devices for work matters was made by the client, though not explicitly. I informed Agile of this unrealistic expectation but I suspect the client will push for this until Agile is in a position to renegotiate.

Intellibridge is a good company to work for, especially compared to other government contracting companies. Management is very realistic about their expectations from employees, and very understanding and laid-back about taking leave, calling out sick, flexing time, etc. I've never had a better work-life balance and the ability to so easily take time off makes it very difficult to ever want to leave the company.  The company listens very well to what you want to do, if you want to move/relocate, or go to a different role, they will do their best to help you do it. Compensation is O-K. It is not the worst, but I would say it is below industry standard. For example, Intel Analysts may make 65-75k where they would otherwise make 85-100k+ elsewhere, so it is a tradeoff. 
For the bad, other than pay, they have lost a couple contracts that I know of personally, which is always not good. I have been with the company for years and luckily have never had it happen to me. Moving up in the company can be a little difficult. There are not a ton of leadership roles available, so when one becomes available, there is inevitably most likely already a more senior person ahead of you to get it. IMO, Intellibridge is a great place to work and get experience. I do not want to leave the company, I enjoy working for them and I love the flexible schedule and ability to take off work easily, however, I will be starting to look for other opportunities soon simply because of the pay. 

I work onsite supporting a client five days a week, so I'm somewhat disconnected from the company itself and therefor can't comment on workplace culture. I was very impressed (shocked, really) at the integrity displayed during my hiring process, which made me turn down an offer in hand with a start date to hold out for a pending offer from IntelliBridge. My manager does a good job of keeping in touch with those of us working at client sites to provide advice or assistance when needed.  When COVID hit, IntelliBridge was immediately proactive in approaching the clients to discuss arrangements for we contractors working at client sites as the situation evolved. I've worked for a lot of companies that make the claim of caring about their people, but IntelliBridge is one of two where I feel that the claim is genuine.

I primarily work from home and remote in. Agile has great health care benefits.

I am able to develop my products with support from co-workers and managers. I have not experienced any negative relationships and learned a great deal as Agile provides training and education reimbursement. Co-workers and management are supportive and always ready to share knowledge and answer any questions.

The hardest part of the job was when I have to commute 3 to 4 hours a day to and from the office.

I love to write and enjoy working with engineers and developing technical manuals from my interviews and doing research.

I enjoy developing training materials and teaching those materials.

I am delighted to share my positive experience with Agile Defense. I was welcomed by a supportive and professional team who prioritized my well-being and success from the moment I joined. The company's culture is one of collaboration and teamwork, which fosters a productive and enjoyable work environment. The management team is knowledgeable and approachable, always willing to provide guidance and support whenever needed. Furthermore, Agile Defense offers excellent career growth and development opportunities, which have helped me acquire new skills and advance in my career. I appreciate the company's commitment to innovation and excellence, which is evident in everything they do. I am proud to be part of such a fantastic company and would highly recommend Agile Defense to anyone seeking a rewarding and fulfilling work experience.

I've never seen more hustle or heart in a contracting company.  The focus is always on employee and customer satisfaction, while continuously growing the business.  Employees have the flexibility to explore and volunteer in various areas of the business for personal growth.  There's a level playing ground within the company, and willingness to learn goes a long way.  Collaboration is welcomed and support is always available, across the company as a whole.  If you're looking for a place to be challenged and grow, this is the place to be.  You won't find a better company culture - it is one large family.  It is what you make of it though - walk in hungry to learn and grow and be prepared to hustle.  It's all worth it!  (And as a side note - they also have the best benefits I've seen across the board...check their website.)

If you're on a contract with a good team/management chain - then your work experience should be great and/or above the standard of other government contractors.

However, if you're NOT in a good place like that, then your experience may be very different. I went to HR with an issue with management, explaining that I was seeking to transfer because of some very troubling decisions I saw my management chain make. They didn't respond back to me until a week later, and it was after they had told my management chain that I wanted to transfer. I ended up being confronted by that same management chain and thus at that point my only real option was to leave the company/contract altogether. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
They really care about there employees, they are always sending a little something extra to show they care about you (holidays, your anniversary,  your birthday). There benefit package it really good too!

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I haven't experienced a lot of stress working there.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
They really go above and beyond to show they value their employees!

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I work remotely, so I log in, we meet up in the morning to go over any updates, I already know what I need to do and if I need assistance for the most part, someone is always available.

Coworkers are fantastic, everyone pitches in to help when things get busy and you need the extra hands. Here, you're given the tools and training you need to succeed, time is flexible, bosses are understanding when you need to take time off. Management genuinely cares about you as a person. Benefits are the best I've had in 30+ years of government contracting. It's got the personal touch of a small business, but the talent and drive to go toe-to-toe with much larger competitors successfully. 

I was hired for a certain wireless position with Intellibridge for NCI contract through GSA.  I wasn't given the area they were going to place me in for over 1 month.  Then when finally I was told I would be working with the VPN and NetOps teams in which I didn't have the work experiences for.  So when NCI decided to release my contract after 90 days, Intellibridge was very accommodating and sympathetic in what happened to me.  They gave me 2 week severance where they didn't have to.  This was very appreciated at the time.
