      Great place to work

      Research staff member

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Plenty of intellectual latitude; Constant flow of interesting projects & very bright colleagues; Freedom to keep your own schedule, so makes for excellent work-life balance; Friendly & courteous colleagues, no management hierarchy; High level of job security & academic lifestyle (but with a much more attractive salary!)

      Cons

      If you are a new employee & you are waiting on your security clearance, you will be placed in not-so-comfortable cubicles in conference rooms till your clearance comes through (you cannot enter the main building without an escort at all times). Also, organizational structure is very flat - not much room for career growth if you are looking to get into management.
