For real, I started with CSC. Merging with an equally bloated, old, pale, male, and stale company was not the optimal solution to address their cultural issues.

CSC did not merge with SRA. CSC spun off its North American Public Sector practice and that merged with SRA.

Hahaha OP asking for opinions but then gets mad when you feel really strongly about said opinion

@OP- historically the commercial side was weaker and less successful than the public sector. You'd almost certainly be placed on long term, govt facing projects. Only plus side is I hear they're moving their HQ to Tysons
