Pros

No pros come to mind.

Cons

1. Photonics group boasts about all the PhDs it hires. It ends up being an organization filled with useless diplomas and not that many hands on people that can do actual work ie build and ship hardware! 2. Organization is extremely top heavy. 3. Management is clueless. Photonics is run by researchers that have zero business acumen and know nothing beyond the pencil and paper where they doodle their designs 4. Customers are misled and made promises that can never be met.

Pros

The "unlimited" FTO is the leader of the pros. Then the leadership has been mostly great and accommodating in allowing you to take time off. There are also plenty of opportunities to learn and grow. There is also the work. Its is very interesting work for specific customers and seeing your part get implemented into a larger project has been rewarding. The team is also great. Everyone is friendly and genuinely cares.

Cons

The big Con like many project oriented Gov contractors is that "everything" becomes priority and it can be difficult to stay on track as well as not get in the way of other teams.
