Isn’t Canda a subsidiary of them? Are they sticking around?
It was never very clear to me or anyone I ever spoke with, what Canda’s role was, exactly. They were presented to us as a “middleman” to be a “buffer” between us and CACI, when Paragon became sub-K to CACI. Canda’s alleged purpose was “to allow us to preserve our work culture.” All of which smacks of BS in my humble opinion.
Anyway, a month or two ago a big chunk of Paragon’s workforce showed up for work and were notified that from then on they would be working for Canda, not Paragon, doing only DCSA work.
After this shutdown the word is that Canda will be making offers of employment to those Paragon employees who want to come on board with them.
Oh good, I am glad that people will have an option to go to Canda
Just some clarification needed for my brain. Is CANDA hiring both W2s and 1099s? I know a few folks who jumped to Paragon as 1099s about a year ago, they liked the culture and the quick pay of their invoices. Has all work ended for Paragon on both DCSA and DHS?
AFAIK all Paragon work is done. Securitas HQ in Sweden has shut down their investigative branch. The FIs I know are being offered both direct positions and 1099 positions.
I have been getting calls from ADC about case work, seems like they are continuing to receive incoming case work.
