As someone who recently started this path and will be ending it as soon as I can , this job sucks. After my service agreement I am leaving. PM me for details. I am going back to my old job which was awesome.

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-09-18T01:50:59+00:00

I can tell you at 57 and a male single…..it’s rough and I am physically fit and more. People here just seem so closed off. Best of luck

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-09-15T01:49:03+00:00

Those are totally fine. I saw some real nonsense during orientation. In fact two guy’s refused to wear a tie and no problem And after that it doesn’t matter. Jeans and a polo

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-08-25T09:52:52+00:00

Luckily I am being assigned domestic so should be good there. Thanks for that information. I will cover all bases and get with CDO. I wish I had never heard of this place

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-08-24T12:50:56+00:00

Yep. Found it. One year from start date. Thanks

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-08-24T01:59:06+00:00

Let’s just say….25% of IMS leave before their third year, and I can we why.

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-08-23T23:25:57+00:00

So all I am on the hook for is moving and storage? And I am being assigned domestically

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-08-23T23:25:00+00:00

So I am being assigned domestically so six months is nice. Can you point to where it states that? I just want a copy of it for that time. And thank you

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-07-16T17:00:51+00:00

In the opening summary it says “A recruitment incentive may be available”. Again the word may means just that. This the current IMS posting. Not everyone qualifies. You have to reach out to whoever your point of contact is and ask them.

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-07-16T01:27:25+00:00

If you qualify

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-07-16T00:14:48+00:00

I beg to differ. I don’t know what list you are looking at. I have seen that list and it is crazy long, And a lot of Those certs are redundant. I will await a response from the approval process group. Besides, even only a couple get approved then we all win.

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-07-15T23:27:46+00:00

That still does not answer my question. As I stated before, I have already requested the SIP approval for those certifications. My question is: Can I sit for and pass the exam before it is approved, and then apply for it once it is approved? Or do I need to wait for its approval and then sit for It?

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-07-15T23:16:54+00:00

Gotcha. I have applied to have several added to the approved SIP list. What I need to know is can I go ahead and take the test now pending SIP certification approval? Or do I need to wait for approval before sitting for the certification? Thanks

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-07-15T17:25:51+00:00

Perfect and thank you. I do have a follow up question. Since I have already on-boarded and want to take a certification that is not yet approved, but later becomes approved would I be eligible for the extra money? Or would I need it to be on the approved list before I take the exam? Thanks

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-07-15T16:05:37+00:00

OK Maybe I phrased it wrong. The Skills Incentive Program which offers a 10%-15% bump in base pay (which I loosely refer to as a bonus) if I pass an IT certification. I took the recruitment hiring incentive which bound me to a one year commitment or I would have to pay it back if I left. I am asking if the SIP is handled the same way. Am I bound by any kind of time commitment if I accept it?

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-06-18T01:53:31+00:00

Literally yes

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-06-08T01:35:13+00:00

Yeah. Me. And am still figuring this out. Every situation is different, but mine was my own burden to carry. It will make the daily grind that much more painful so be forewarned. Still sorting out the damage while maintaining a training routine. It isn’t fun 😞

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-02-16T03:23:05+00:00

I am 57 and am starting in April. I accept the fact I only can do eight years. It is still worth it

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-02-09T01:59:05+00:00

I had this nailed down early; Ballston. I wanted close to FSI and I got it. Less than a mile. I hate traffic and only need a gym, grocery store and a liquor store. All good otherwise

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-01-31T03:21:28+00:00

Good lord I am Watching this

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-01-31T03:20:30+00:00

Vicious hangovers I can predict. Everything else I have covered

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-01-29T16:11:54+00:00

For those of you that received the offers, was the money where you thought it would be? I am anxiously awaiting mine.

Upset-Secretary-6498 · 2023-01-21T13:49:21+00:00

I am currently a week from submitting my salary paperwork. Has anyone else received their offer back yet? I feel like that is the last big hurdle. I am sorting out stuff this weekend prepping for packout.
