Pros

If you work on a contract you don't have to deal with corporate and the PM's take good care of their employees, but if you work indirect then I can't think of any pros.

Cons

way to many to list but, raises, medical insurance, 401K, training, terrible BD department and management are horrible the good old boy and interoffice relationships with upper management is out of control. I have worked for numerous DoD contractors and this is by far at the bottom

Pros

Decent culture, individual contributors are fine, management is lacking

Cons

The company operates like many smaller companies depending on which business market you are in so your experience will vary. For some, it's the best company, others will say it's the worst; it just depends on your region/group even at the local level. Water/wastewater is a good market in most offices, transportation is hit an miss depending on location.
