Pluspunten

- Hybrid work. - Employees truly care about the work they do and the gov't agencies to which they provide services.

Minpunten

To echo what others have said, there is a dissonance between the company's message and practices. Working at OPEXUS feels like you're at constantly at a company parade/pep rally. They're very happy to tell you repeatedly why the company is good and how it is working so hard to do right by its employees, but with very little to show for it. - High turnover. This isn't a very large company, but there have been a significant number of departures (both high and low-level) during my time. It takes a lot for devoted employees, especially those who have relationships with their customers, to leave. - Work-Life balance. It's not good. Unlimited PTO is designed to make you take less and not pay out accrued time. Overtime and after-hours work was often expected. Not being fully remote is a big contributor to this, too. The company hosts wellness/social events during workdays. What good are they if that isn't factored into the work that needs to be done? I'm not going to do an hour of chair yoga if it means I have to work an hour late, thank you. - Expect little to no training or resources for growth. Getting information from others often proved to be an arduous, time-consuming affair. Little to no opportunities for career progression, unimpressive compensation/benefits, PITA timekeeping. I could go on, but my advice is truly just this: avoid working here.

Pluspunten

* Coworkers are all very kind and interesting, bringing different perspectives to the table * Unlimited PTO * While it varies depending on your manager, I've felt supported in my professional growth and like my supervisor genuinely cares about my development. Tuition assistance is available, senior employees will answer your questions, and leadership is easy to reach for career chats and advice. * The office is easily accessible (right by two metro stations and several bus stops, with a lot of parking lots nearby) and is a nice space. Very convenient for DC residents. While this isn't everyone's experience, I like coming in; I get more work done, I feel like I know more people outside of my team, and I learn a lot more about the company * This is both a Pro and a Con depending on how you look at it, but you will be working hard. It's a growing company and you may have to take on more challenges than your peers in other companies, but you will gain more experience, take on more new projects, and develop more new skills than they may have the opportunity to do. * Events are put on (small and large) to encourage community-building and to make people look forward to coming into the office/interacting with their coworkers.

Minpunten

* Again, it's hard work. If you don't take care of yourself or enforce your boundaries you can get burnt out. Depending on where you're at in life, this may be a deal-breaker for you. * Higher turnover than what you would want to see. It seems like the main cause of people leaving is finding a fully remote job or one closer to where they live if they're not in DC. But it does create a weird vibe
