Pros

Strives to change and come up-to-date, has many processes that are good, is slowly changing to adapt.

Cons

Completely silo'd from other parts of the parent company. No opportunity for cross-training. Has a lot of business that has nothing to do with IT. Formerly Anteon, purchased by GD. Culture slow to change from former company. Focuses too much on processes that don't work contrary to common sense. Overly bureaucratic; difficult to get anything done. Younger workers are not provided any learning opportunities and are taught to follow processes vs. thinking critically about problems. Poor teamwork between functional departments overall; very adversarial. Functional department managers are very territorial. Poor management leadership. Few opportunities for advancement. Company binged on hiring in 2010, started attrition in 2012 and has since laid off and demoted many people.

Pros

Salary and benefits are good for the industry. As long as you are a performer there seems to be less of a chance of layoffs than other large system integrators around the beltway

Cons

Opportunity for promotion is limited. Need to be your own advocate when looking for the next contract to work.
