Pros

Great people! I’ve worked at several locations and everyone is always so nice and helpful. Also lots of opportunity to move around and try new things.

Cons

More of an industry problem, but lots of red tape limiting technology stacks. Lots of legacy products are in use and it’s almost impossible to get new tech into classified environments. This limits how much engineers are able to explains their toolset and prevents project optimization.

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.

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. 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.
