Pros

None. Go get a job with a real company that actually cares about their employees and a sustainable future. Not just chasing the next big thing without a plan or process in place.

Cons

1.) “Market disruptor,” composed of the same people in executive management that made defense a billion dollar black-hole of taxpayer money in the first place 2.) Highly incompetent engineering management in the software department. Can’t tell the difference between an embedded system and an enterprise system. 3.) Very, very poor leadership: You will not be supported. But, you will be expected to carry the weight of an entire program on your shoulders with no equity in the company and four or five different people harassing you for status, but unwilling or unable to lift a single finger to help you themselves.

Pros

I have been working at this defense company for over three years now, and it has been a truly rewarding experience. The company fosters a collaborative and innovative environment where employees are encouraged to grow professionally and contribute meaningfully to national security projects. Leadership is supportive and transparent, providing clear direction and opportunities for career advancement. The company offers competitive benefits and a strong commitment to employee well-being. In my role, I have had the chance to work on exciting projects that have a real impact on the defense sector. The team is highly skilled and motivated, and there is a strong sense of camaraderie and mutual respect. Overall, this company is a great place to build a career, especially for those passionate about contributing to important defense initiatives and working in a dynamic, forward-thinking environment.

Cons

Work life balance is a challenge during the initial growth phase but has begun to get better as the company has continued to hire additional employees.

Pros

I did enjoy working there, most everyone was enjoyable.

Cons

However, there were also a couple of very difficult people, one of which would throw you under the bus at the drop of a hat to gain self promotion, management listens to him.
