Pros

Depending on team/manager there may be some flexibility. There are some smart people here, but they don't stick around long.

Cons

Archaic management practices, fearful environment that breeds territorialism and gossip about what massive change is coming next. Ideation is quashed and help with anything from computer and phone issues to HR policies/leave is scarce.

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.
