Pros

Talented, capable people are recognized and rewarded well. Slackers are not tolerated. Unusual for a government contractor. Good financial committment to IRADs that make sense no matter the timescale.

Cons

They will respect your personal life if you make it a priority. But if you dont' protect yourself they will happily overwork you until you burn out.

Pros

Good working environment Exciting projects Great coworkers (for the most part, like any place)

Cons

Like any maturing company, it has become more and more top-heavy, placing more and more emphasis on project management and milestones, sometimes over bread-and-butter engineering. I could have half the PMs I have now and do a better job
