Sciolex Corporation

This company had its ups and downs, but I'm happier now than I was when I first started here.

The company and employees have been through a lot. A pandemic, a flooded building, a mass relocation of the majority of its workforce, etc.

My experience here has definitely had its share of negativity but lately, it's become a lot better.

There have been a lot of changes, some very much for the better. Communications between corporate and site level has improved immensely. Processes (at least on my level of things) have improved significantly, there are more employee care initiatives being rolled out. The company is trying to right all the wrongs of the past 2.5 years. I know for a lot of people, it's too little too late, but they are trying. 

While the majority of the employees think that this company (and site management) don't care for them, that couldn't be further from the truth. They do care. They care a lot. They have just been poorly managed and poorly communicated with.

That's changed recently, though. It's still not perfect and there's still some issues with communication from corporate to site level, but it's a lot better than it used to be. 

The people I work with, regardless of their position or title, make it worthwhile. The people are the best part of this job, hands down. Especially the people on site. 

This company isn't perfect. They went from a very small company to a very big one virtually overnight. They had enormous growing pains that they never really got a hold of until recently. But they never stopped trying.

I'm not condoning some of the things they have done and still don't agree with quite a few of their decisions, mainly because it impacts my work negatively and causes me more stress than necessary. 

Overall, I'm grateful for the opportunities and experiences I've had here and the people I have met. This is not a perfect place to work, but I've worked in much worse. 

My experience with Sciolex at the DAL Office was incredibly challenging. The company failed to acknowledge the severe lack of staff, leaving me to handle the workload of two departments entirely on my own for weeks. The situation was exacerbated by the fact that there were only two supervisors managing multiple departments simultaneously.
Additionally, late paychecks were a recurring issue throughout the year, and there was a complete lack of communication from both HR and the payroll team regarding these delays. This lack of transparency added unnecessary stress to an already difficult situation.
Furthermore, the benefits offered by the company were not only terrible but also expensive, making it difficult for employees to access necessary healthcare and support.
I empathize with the supervisors who recognized our need for help but were hindered by a slow hiring process. It is evident that the company's recruitment procedure was significantly delayed, leading to a prolonged period of understaffing. This delay not only impacted the employees, who were overburdened with work but also potentially inconvenienced applicants and hindered the organization's overall efficiency.
All in all, in-office supervisors were the best, and management from Virginia were the worst, fake people that we unfortunately had to depend on.

This was the worst contract a lot of folks have seen come in- folks who have been around much longer than I have at the place. Corporate is horrible. Treats their supervisors like garbage. They had no idea what they were getting themselves into but that can only be forgiven to a point. There has been a mass exodus of knowledgeable personnel locally as of late- people are dropping like flies because this place is so stressful and negative. My position put me back on medication just to get out of bed in the morning. What I will say is that people are paid extremely well and the standards are low for behavior and general work ethic. The benefits are not terrible either. But the company inherited many policies being that the contracting company here changes every few years with a unionized setting.

As a recent hire I feel I can give an accurate review of the work environment here.  This is a very welcoming place.  The Management Team and employees go out of their way to make new employees feel like they are a  part of a Team.   I also know we are all doing very meaningful work here supporting  the US Citizenship and Immigration Services process US Citizenship applications.  

Great company to work for, the executives and corporate team are passionate about their mission and you can tell they are empathetic to the needs of employees. Sometimes communicating with corporate can be confusing because the guidance we receive is at odds with past practices under different contractors, but we do our best to adapt to changes in direction that may come our way as the result of having a new contractor. The company has had a lot of challenges to handle - from flooding government buildings to the crazy pandemic - but has handled them probably better than we would have expected. 

I was very happy with the climate of the HQ staff; but I was having problems fitting with the off-site location if FL.  
The typical day at work was normal for what I was used at other places that I worked; only that I had two individuals that I had to track on two totally different types of computer systems.  As if this were not enough confusion there were also too many other individuals that still had access to their calendars ad were making changes as well.  
I felt that I was never going to fit into the culture of the workplace at the off-site in FL - good thing that it was only a temporary position.

This is the worst company I've ever seen as a government contractor. 
The contracting management makes threats everyday to fire you if you don't follow their chain of command. If you contact HR, you get fired. If you talk to the government employees, you get fired.  You don't receive supplies to do your work.  You have favoritism throughout the chains.  And if you're a man, EXPECT to be used just to lift boxes and push carts.  Only women get promoted into positions and that's if they like you.  

Management will never stick up for you unless they like you.  And if you think HR will step in.. Nobody ever met HR as they are based in Virginia... STAY AWAY! 

Worked here for 5 years almost and the training is ridiculous. They expect you to train new employees regardless of how long you have been working on your position.  Some positions they just throw you in and you have to basically figure it out yourself. When the government closes their offices for natural disasters like floods or hurricanes, you are forced to use your sick or vacation times in order to get paid.  Only good thing is the schedule, benefits are not great. No vision, dental insurance and not once but twice Sciolex did not pay the healthcare to the insurance company leaving employees with medical attention to be denied.  

Management is awful, HR is awful. Nothing is confidential. The pay and benefits aren’t worth the work and stress you go through. Management does not listen to complaints or concerns. You get 2 hours PTO for every biweekly pay period so if you want a full day off it’ll take you a month. Also you use leave without pay, they will give you a written warning. So don’t get sick or have anything important come up and you don’t have PTO to use! There turnover rate is going up and I’m trying so hard to get out of here!

What is the best part of working at the company?
Some of the people are lovely.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
-No training involved!
-No communication with the new hires.
-No patience with mistakes.
-Very clique-y and immature staff (some of them)

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Sucky, some are just terrible to the new hires like myself. It is depressing.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Observing the surroundings and the toxic environment, just makes me count the hours till I leave.
