Pros
You get to work with NASA and colleagues and managers are all interested and intelligent people
Cons
The company is going downhill at an exponential rate. Anemic raises to convince the government they aren't wasting money just increases churn which drives up the cost in the end. Awful communication from corporate when they make changes to internal tools without ever seeming to run them by the people who actually use them. IT help desk and configuration is managed remotely from India and the staff in the US is stretched thin fixing issues from that and can barely spare time for other projects that they're need for. Has lost several contracts in a row and is in limbo as two more are up for recompete right now. They seem to be spinning off orgs to have more diverse income streams without much success while also buying the C-suite new cars (for the company fleet of course) at a prodigious rate.
