Pros
Ability to work advanced, high-technology concepts. Freedom to generate unique solutions with a minimum of interference.
Cons
Extreme bias within senior management associated with their previous military service organizations creating an inability to think outside of their former position conceived notions. Strong tendency to remove individuals of knowledge and expertise at 60 years of age in favor of much younger individuals without this knowledge or expertise. This procedure often created interactions with government customers where the younger employee would tell the customer at inappropriate venues that their conceived solutions were wrong or ill-conceived...something an experienced employee would never do. This often resulted in loss of trust by the customer and loss of future revenue.
