Pros

It's a stable job with a lot of flexibility in the working hours. They really care about the employees and there is always lot of new and interesting work coming in.

Cons

It's a defense contractor so you need to maintain a security clearance for a lot of the positions which can be tedious. Also the compensation is not quite as high as some companies in the private sector.

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.
