Pros

*Great Job providing live intelligence support to Special Operations Force missions *Work with professionals with a great spectrum of experience in different agencies and military branches (great potential to learn) *Higher level positions are filled from within, versus externally *Good company managers at all levels that are approachable and care *Lots of potential ways to grow (qualifications, responsibility, other areas of work - like in the dayshops and on the AFSOC Staff)

Cons

Not much to complain about - Salary was higher in the past (wish it was still at those levels), but the environment for this career field is being saturated and contracts are not paying what they were. The healthcare is pricey but I use Tri-Care for health and only get Dental and Vision which are reasonable. Some of the younger analysts (mil/gov and contractor alike) need a little more mentorship and can be immature. It can be tough though since the supervisors for all types are working the mission too and may not see things that could be fixed as they occur.
