Pros

They are very employee driven, and promote work life balance and financial preparation. You work on a wide variety of projects. Everyone was welcoming and inclusive.

Cons

You are pulled off projects at any moment so you never get to feel the satisfaction of completing a project and taking ownership of it. They state that they are open to learning however I was ignored multiple times only to find out they pushed someone into learning something that they were not interested in although I had been pratically begging for 2 years! I was told I would have to take outside courses and teach myself which was not true for others. They have a lot of discussions about processes, what doesn't work and what can be done better, but nothing changes. Some PMs do NOT know what they are doing, give poor direction, and do everything different ways so you feel like you always in a tornado and never really on solid ground.

Pros

Work life balance Work from anywhere policy

Cons

All senior level engineers are absolutely checked out and just coasting until retirement. It's clear everyone has advanced through years with the company and not on merit. The company is incredibly slow to adapt. My first day I showed up to the office, a cubicle farm and was given outdated tech. They still supply wired keyboard and mouse and wired headsets. It was a warning sign of things to come. Saying the office environment is drab is too kind. They still employ full wall cubicles and closed door offices with no windows. Any company even remotely in tune with today's office culture left these behind 10-20 years ago. The work is slow and unrewarding at best. They work on bloated government contacts. I was routinely given 2-4 hours of work and told we have 40-80 hours budgeted so make sure you use it all
