WHY WE THINK WE'RE A GREAT PLACE TO WORK

Barbaricum prioritizes culture first. "The work you love with the people you want to do it with" is a mantra that has guided the organization since its inception, and continues to lead it forward. Our energetic approach fosters a culture of "why," where employees are eager to learn and free to explore solutions that may be off the beaten path. By sending employees to major technology and innovation conferences like Black Hat, SxSW, Web Summit, and more, the company continues to nurture their curiosity. Barbaricum believes in balancing hard work with relaxation. There are often happy hours on our rooftop deck after a long week of work, with the senior leadership of the firm present to build relationships with co-workers outside of day-to-day work. The partners and senior leadership have an open-door policy, and strive to provide meaningful support to employees when they have issues and/or crises. On the whole, Barbaricum feels more like a family than a government contracting firm. From a corporate standpoint, the firm is a stable and secure small business. Additionally, in 2015, The Washington Post named Barbaricum one of its "Best Places to Work in D.C."

Working with us means having all-in experiences both at work and in life. Since our inception, we’ve been a fully remote organization.

We’re committed to building a diverse, equitable. and inclusive environment that allows all employees to thrive by embodying a culture of acceptance, offering resources and education, challenging the status quo, and making an impact in our communities. Some of our great perks include spot bonuses, vacation reimbursement, personal wellness contributions, parental benefits, sabbaticals, technology allowances, and education reimbursements.
