Pros
It was a good way to get my foot in the door of the contracting community but that's about the only benefit
Cons
Not sure where the whole "good pay" thing I keep seeing in the pro's is coming from, BAE employees at wallops island are underpaid an average of 10k for all positions except for higher management. Classic "we care" company when in reality you are simply a number to them. They screwed with my pay and then tried to chastise me when I put my 2 weeks notice in as if I had betrayed them. They WILL expect you to bend over backwards to accommodate their work requests. Which is fine to a point but if you let them they will simply become more demanding with no compensation. Good luck not getting thrown under the bus by upper management, they tried to do that to me not even a month after giving me employee of the month. Luckily I had proof of my innocence. After that the person who tried to throw me under the bus continued to try and make my life difficult. Don't expect them to hire legitimately qualified people. They hired an individual for a communications related job.....the individual spoke virtually no English.
