  • CTC Group funds income protection: employees' short-term and long-term disability insurance premiums are fully employer paid.
  • Military coursework earns education credit: CTC Group's network-defense analyst roles count 18 relevant semester hours as an associate's degree.

What critics are saying

  • Arabic travel linguists face conflict-zone assignments: CTC Group requires travel to overseas, warzone and undisclosed East Coast locations.
  • Acquisition candidates need clearance first: CTC Group requires active top-secret access to sensitive intelligence and a polygraph.
