Pros

Great company to work for depending on your department. Rapid growth constantly makes new opportunities available. Great work/life balance and very little micromanaging. Competitive salaries and regular compensation increases, including yearly bonuses. Great retirement plan and one of a few remaining companies that still offer a pension.

Cons

Constantly shifting management makes it tough to build a rapport. High expectations and heavy regulations make for very random spikes in workload and increased stress at times.

Pros

Managers are very supportive and foster growth while challenging you. Semi flexible schedule - can come in early or stay late to meet required hours. Decent pay, tuition reimbursement, 401k matching, Mentorship opportunities

Cons

Leadership tends to get ahead of themselves with potential large contracts. Begin to invest a lot of time and money prior to contracts being awarded. Could be more clear on company goals and mission. Limited salary increase when changing roles.
