Pros

Good benefits, good pay, great people and coworkers. Working at a small business gives you access to all levels of the organization that you don't get with large businesses. You can just walk into HR or IT and get something done really quickly. The company has been around for over 48 years and has very mature systems. There were many company events which brought the employees together like ice cream socials, karaoke, Pi Day, annual holiday parties and summer picnics.

Cons

There aren't many but maybe the corporate offices could use some updating.

Pros

+ Access to NASA projects + Remote work contracts + Flexible hours + Scrappy C-suite

Cons

+ These folks seem to see staff as cattle with a cost+ bounty over their heads + They put their group managers in uncomfortable interpersonal positions + Company events feel like desperate attempts by the C-suite to check a box and appear like they care.
