Pros

I work in the ASI devision. Interesting work with cutting technology. Offers good benefits and decent pay, albeit typically lower than "industry average". Solid employees that are generally a pleasure to work with.

Cons

If you deploy, prepare to have an unpredictable schedule. It can be nearly impossible to make plans. 84 hours/week while deployed.

Pros

Lots of opportunities. Company is growing and expanding product lines. Very diverse so there is no high dependency on any one product line

Cons

Rapid growth as caused chaos. Managers who do not know how to manage have been in their positions too long. Inefficiencies in the company make it hard to get things done quickly.
