Pros

Excellent experience. As PDPs, we are treated very well and considered to be the future leaders of the company. Though this experience depends on where your rotation is at, so far I have received more than adequate support from fellow coworkers and even upper level management who realize the importance of injecting youth into the aging work force.

Cons

None to speak of. Though the PDP is now enterprise-wide, you may find that each sector runs it slightly differently. You might notice this if you try to rotate out of sector. More of an observation than a con.

Pros

The people you work for directly are wonderful professionals. They listen and truly work together as a team, sharing their ideas and critiques freely and fairly. Even the managers, leads and program mangers are the best I have worked with in a while. They .ake working for Northrop Grumman the best.

Cons

The Csuite are not as inventive and very risk averse. They cry about needing to keep talent and keep the knowledge base from being lost. But when a program gets canceled or stop work, if you arent at one of their main work sites like in Dulles or Gilbert, you are out of luck now with their push of no "remote" work. And by remote that means not at whatever site the managers are at, so even if you are at an NG official office, they consider that "remote". And it isnt the managers choice either as the corporate pushes them to deny "remote" or make their lives miserable if they try to keep current employees that could fill the role at other offices.
