Pros

Location (Boulder/Broomfield Colorado). Strong engineering staff. Dedicated lower level management.

Cons

With the recent change in President, the culture has changed. Many of the best Directors and VPs have been driven out. The President and his cronies (particularly his #2) care less about the success of the company than about their own images in industry. They waste an inordinate amount of time on petty politicking, and are apparently incapable of strategic thinking (unless, like the Washington DC office, you cannot distinguish between strategy and marketing).

Pros

Amazing mentors, fantastic work life balance, and challenging and interesting work. Best place I could’ve asked to launch my career. This could very well be group/department dependent though, I think I got super lucky there with my manager, mentors, and team.

Cons

Almost all benefits got worse after BAE acquisition.
