"Could have easily been a much better place to work."

Overreach in a huge way as to the responsibilities were on a technical level, and duties assigned to people with the wrong skillset, (A PhD for animals assigned to the full scope of web design and development - not the Web Designer) With that said it is a Gov. Contract for the military and GDIT does not have say as to who gets assigned to do what."
