Pros

1) Really cool projects. I really feel like I am creating the future. 2) Work schedule is super flexible. The norm is the 9/80 schedule where you work an hour more each day so that you can take every other Friday off. But, if wanted I can request a different schedule if I want like 4/10 or traditional. I can also set my own time to come to work, as long as I do the full number of hours I have to do that day. I can come to office at 6AM one day and 10AM next day if I want, as long as I don't miss meetings and do a full 8-9 hours of work that I am supposed to do that day. 3) Unlimited PTO and they actually encourage you to take a decent amount 4) They are very encouraging and accommodating if you are a military reservist while working here 5) Work life balance is pretty good. In my team you can mostly choose to or not to work overtime and most work exactly 40 hours/week. However I have been told that if I want to work overtime then I can. I personally choose not to.

Cons

Onboarding was quite short. I dove right in to working pretty quick as a new developer so it was overwhelming at first. But I was given more time to do tasks to make up for it. Looking back it might be better that way because it was easier to learn by doing than by onboarding courses.

Pros

As a contractor you can enjoy high pay if you negotiate it with the approved Indian based (ok US based but Indian controlled) structure. The busines prospects also look promising. Assurity of Income due to Defense Industrial Complex. The willingness to set aside major plant operations and redirect security personel to protect Visiting VIP Cabinet Level Appointees so they can perform Security Theater (I would call it Political Messaging by current Government leaders in the Department of War since the scripted end product was released for public consumption.) This ability to successfully chase taxpayers dollars will serve the company well in the near future.

Cons

The need to have US Citizens work most of the positions is a security requirement. Yet the reality is that means very little when those US Citizens are scrutinized almost completely by entities in another country. An organization cited US Law about hiring decisions and then gave a Calcutta address to snail mail / contact if an adverse decision was used.
