      Great Company to Start a Career at

      Research associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Interesting, intellectually stimulating work. Deep expertise and experience amongst research staff, and opportunities to learn extensively about important defense issues. Flexibility to choose projects that interest you. Solid work-life balance.

      Cons

      Lack of a well-defined long-term career path for Research Associates can limit RA tenure. Could likely benefit from some more formal mentorship opportunities. Less cutting edge than some private sector organizations in the field.
