Pros

Good opportunity, and wide range of technical fields. Benefits are normal for the engineering field, but not above average.

Cons

Pay seems to be lower then average for mid-level and below with your experience being entirely dependent on your career manager and senior manager. Favoritism seems to be an issue.

Pros

The company employees very talented people and they really do try to make life better within the office's of BAH through use of fun-time committees. Offices that I've been to are nice,

Cons

There are a lot of downsides to BAH, I don't want to come off as bitter so I'll try to be factual. As the nature of contracting and resources working at customer sites, it's very difficult to feel that the organization cares at all about the off-site employee. The "hoteling" and open office environment are contributing to the deterioration of moral. As benefits increase BAH makes an effort to keep insurance costs down but they're in the trends as other organizations and just offer awful medical plans unless you'd like to spend $600 per month for the family. The only way to advance within BAH is the person above you has to leave in some fashion...wooden box, new opportunity externally or relocation for another opportunity. Transfers internal to the company are lateral at best therefore no upward mobility unless you make your own contract and prove invaluable to the revenue of the organization. Please I hope this is read before relocating to the greater Patuxent River area as its really a great place if you DON'T have kids and enjoy boating as that's really all to do. There is very little to nothing to do other than a few good bars. Really read the other reviews before committing.
