Excellent Employer - werkgeversreview Network Engineer bij Navigator Development Group

NDGI is a small to medium size company that offers support services to DOD. The size of the company and contracts are what make NDGI so remarkably efficient in offering employees all the support necessary to be productive. Their Management and Program Managers are all extremely qualified, with a proven track record of caring for the quality of life for their employees while ensuring customer satisfaction. It is by far the best and most competent company I have work for in over 25 years of working Gov support contracts.

Where the upside is that you are an employee and not just an employee number with NDGI, is that you can't hide in a vast matrix of staff. So if you don't want to work, be productive, or be acknowledged then any small to medium size company won't be a fit for you. I however don't consider that to be a con. Rather it is just a recognition that good work and a high standard of performance is expected from all their team members.

This company truly cares about the people who work for them. Being a defense industry small business there are times when contracts end - which affects those on the contract. The senior leadership monitors each contract closely and tries to utilize those on contracts that are ending on other projects. They do their best to keep good employees. And if they can't, they try to help them with other employment. They have forwarded resumes to others that they know are looking for people with their skill sets - or at least write a good letter of recommendation. If an employee has an idea for growth - it is always welcomed. The owner and senior leaders are accessible to everyone in the company. Navigator takes care of its people and offers us excellent benefits.

As a defense industry consulting firm you are at the mercy of the government - you have no control if they downsize or reorganize. That is the nature of the business and those in the contracting world understand that possibility.
