What our employees are saying
I joined SPA as a means of continuing my work for the Navy Reserve while balancing the fulfilling requirements of DoD support. It’s been a great 11 months and I’ve loved working on AUKUS with so many other Fleet veterans. SPA has exceeded my expectations and has allowed me to continue giving my best efforts in support of our great nation!
I recommend SPA as a company of choice for veterans because of our laser-like, unflinching focus on the national security mission and our portfolio of tools and analytic methodologies that enable you [our employees] to deliver results that matter to our clients and our nation.
My previous experience as a submarine officer offers me unique contextual experience that I seek to incorporate in the projects I'm assigned to. After eight months with SPA, I am very pleased with the experience and I'm hopeful that this will be the company that I retire from!
What I really value at SPA is the fact that the work is challenging. I think SPA and I know my government contract value my opinion, my subject matter expertise, and what I bring to help them solve complex problems. We pride ourselves in taking care of our people; the benefits packages are top notch, the work is challenging, it's fun. I'm not in a routine of doing the same thing day in and day out – always new projects, always new work, and the sense of accomplishment at the end of every week. [My time] has been well spent supporting national defense.
SPA’s culture provided the ideal location to land post-military service. SPA provided opportunities for me to utilize all the skills I developed during my time in the military. My military experience and working on high-level staffs with National Level Leadership has been a unique enabler to my role as the Assistant Program Manager supporting the team.
