Pros

Great engineering team. Benefits are ok. Work is challenging. Customer is for the most part reasonable. Support staff is always helpful.

Cons

Management team is average always pushing for high risk schedules. Treat engineers like pawns moved around in a game board. Unreasonable expectations on amount a time to spent on the job. Unbalanced live-work. Very slow to hire needed staff. No sense of community. Have been cutting down on the benefits steadily in recent years. Ver poor annual pay increases.

Pros

Good work life balance Projects matter for our war fighters Most co-workers are competent and dedicated More work than people, and moving to other engineering jobs is possible

Cons

Some numbskulls seem to get into senior positions. A "Consolidation" of buildings is underfunded, poorly planned, and drives chaos. The push to squeeze every nickel of efficiency means that there isn't always money for equipment or team building events (below the VP level).
