Pros

Great people, flexible hours, very stable, have the opportunity to work on interesting projects, the company is large enough that you can find a niche for just about any type of engineering you want to do and switching departments is pretty easy.

Cons

The surrounding area is pretty dead. Also, it’s a large corporation and it’s clear the higher ups don’t care much about the average employee (parking is absolutely terrible because the company refuses to build convenient parking lots, they usually find a way to make you use PTO during extreme inclement weather despite the entire state shut down, etc).

Pros

This is a last resort job if you can’t find anything else

Cons

The processes and systems in place to get the job done is dismal. There is no official training for the job role. If you make suggestions and try to be helpful you are seen as a threat by management. There is rarely any cross functional communication. It feels like they want things to take a long time and be wrong so that they can charge the govt. more money. (Bc every task you do will have a charge number). Most long timers at the company don’t care about the work being done inefficiently either, bc they have a reason for overtime. Very weird corporate politics / favoritism. (I have never seen it as bad as it is here). Parking is terrible at every location.
