Pros

Nice people, but powerless most of the time.

Cons

Don't waste your time in this company. There are good people, but they're put down by what seems to be what's wrong in corporate america. There are plenty of companies out there that are far more professional than this sub par company.

Pros

Excellent pay and benefits. Good community of people. Can socialize all day. Christmas Party!! Gym, Cafeteria, Choir, Clubs, Softball, and many other company supported activities. Education reimbursement. American Express gift certificates!

Cons

Unrealistic goal setting. No lateral mobility to get well rounded experience for promotion. Promotion based on *ss kissing than qualifications. Computers are used for e-mail bashing, socialization, playing solitare and paying the household bills. Work is still done by paper processes. Company bills customer (US Gov't) by the hours each employee works, the longer it takes to get the job done, the more money the company makes. HR is there to support club and community activities, not provide guidance to managers on employee. Rewards are passed out to everyone regardless of performance. Low moral. Lay-offs based on performance can be fought and reinstated by following a published HR process. Office Union staff - nuff said.

Pros

Bleeding edge technologies in a major growth field. Exposure to a variety of engineering roles. Multidisciplinary teams of electrical, mechanical, software, and systems engineering.

Cons

Chaotic, management not experienced with large scale programs, management with little or no experience working elsewhere. This company invented "not invented here." Lack of leadership and communications. Someone has to be empowered to set the goals and keep everyone marching toward it.
