Pros

As a government contractor, your learning curve is steep in the first couple of years.

Cons

The senior management are sitting there for years, and manages this company as a grocery store. They just try to save themselves by throwing mid or junior level staffs under the bus. Benefits and compensation are not at par. Micromanaging is a serious issue, especially with the research teams.
