Working at Chenega in Lorton, VA: 5 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Lorton, VA Area

"Chenega Federal Systems was at the time an 8a wholly owned subsidiary to Chenega. It is now a small business extension and a new 8a has emerged. Chenega is a native American owned and operated company with great benefits and people.They have a family oriented well balanced work life plan and are very good at keeping you aware of corporate events. They lack mostly in looking within the company for emerging stars or promotions."

"I have been with CTSC, LLC (a division of Chenega) since 2004, and as a whole the experience has been pleasant. Over the years though, with the changes throughout our contract and various other changes with benefits (health care, altered pay), the experience has been less than ideal. My direct supervisor has always been kind and supportive, the upper management has been lacking, either disconnected or ambivalent."

"Since employment in the mid-2000's the focus of the company went from an organization totally committed to the customer to one that was more concerned with the paperwork than the satisfaction. Being government controlled, employee input to enact change was non-existent. The supervision and co-workers are all dedicated, friendly, and cooperative but the process became the product, not the desire to satisfy the customer... and ultimately the reason the contract was altered and ultimately cancelled."

"Management is a joke. I advise no one should work for them."
