Pros

The diversity in the projects and applications is really great. There are a lot of very smart people that you get to interact with to come up with innovative solutions to challenging problems. The work life balance is also quite good and Draper is open to flexible work arrangements.

Cons

There can be tight deadlines sometimes. As a smaller company that works on projects that are usually taken on by larger defense contractors, there is at times a lack of infrastructure and processes to properly execute your work.

Pros

Many of the engineering jobs at Draper have the advantage of getting to work on a new program every few months or so. Lots of programs take ideas from very early theory to production ready

Cons

Sometimes you get matched to jobs because there is a need and you are available - not because you are well suited
