      Pros

      There is plenty of work to be done = job security. The people you meet and work with are great.

      Cons

      If you are retired military you are a shoe in for a promotion, but if you did not you are screwed. Some teams are ran like a military unit, meaning you are expected to bend over backward for the greater good, but no compensation for long hours or extra $$. The people that have been there for years are regularly asked to train their new boss, for the promotion they were looking forward to. As a former service member myself I have been around too much of the good ol' boys club. That is why many of us did not stay in the military.

      Great Place to Work

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Great pay and benefits - Flexible work schedule - Meritocracy: If you work hard, are able to effectively work with other people and groups, and meet goals, then you will succeed at this company - Work is fun, always new and changing. You can learn as much as you possibly can

      Cons

      - The company does value loyalty and longevity. That can be a good and bad thing, as your Management typically consists of long-term employees - The company is going through a phase where it had expanded in leaps and bounds, but now has to define itself better. Processes needed to improved (this is in work)
