Pluspunten

-Cool projects with government agencies -Nice people -Great way to get experience on multiple different types of comms work -Work life balance was great. I very very rarely worked nights and I never once worked on a weekend. -I liked my manager -All of my peers in the communications division were hardworking and really cared about their jobs! It was great to work with them.

Minpunten

-Poor vacation time. The PTO at ICF Next is terrible. 17 days total for the year, INCLUDING your sick time. PTO is also accrued throughout the year, making it even more difficult to take time off. -I didn't have as much flexibility to select projects I was interested in, as I hoped I would when I joined. But that could just be a result of the types of projects that were open/available when I was there.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and leaving this 4-star review. Through employee feedback, our benefits team found that having paid time off that includes both sick and vacation time gives our employees more flexibility. Typically, businesses practice either a lump sum approach to paid time off (PTO), or an accrual bank. We take the latter so employees can use their days within the year or rollover to the following year. In case of emergency or a need for extended leave, we offer added support, like employee donated pools or short-term disability leave. If you still have more questions about PTO, you can reach out to your HR representative. --- SS
