      Decent place to work, but don't expect a lot of growth in career and salary

      Principal software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Projects can be interesting and tend do be very focused, so that's great for in-depth knowledge. Engineering teams are generally rather good.

      Cons

      Too much process for the sake of process. The culture does not encourage innovation. Very limited growth opportunities mean that the best and brightest leave. Senior engineering management tend to refuse to acknowledge the problem. An old-line management style does not help - it places a premium on labor utilization, but does not focus on employee motivation and retention.

      I love my job, despite it's minor downfalls

      Operations senior

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There are lots of opportunities to expand your knowledge beyond the basic job definition.

      Cons

      Upper management sometimes makes decisions costing the company tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars, whereas it's like pulling teeth to encourage them to spend $300 on an appreciation event for employees.

      Excellent company with excellence in engineering, ethics, and security.

      Senior staff systems engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The people are very conscientious and smart. There is a lot of integrity in the company. After all, we are building systems to be used by our military and there is no room for slacking or poor ethics. There is also a lot of security. Upper management does care about growing the company by making the people, processes and products better. They don't just strive for pushing sales anyway possible, but to differentiate our products through excellence.

      Cons

      There aren't to many other then the company tends to be tight with the purse strings. They pay good but they watch their pennies in most other ways. But, I just look at that as a part of their good ethics. Waste not want not. And again, we are a government contractor so extravagance is not something your going to find here.
