Pros

NO pros i have found so far

Cons

KBR Exploits Workers. This company hires immigrants (in F1 and H1B) and exploits the hell out of them. Gets a lot of money from government and pays very little to the employees. very little raise and no bonuses and rewards. Stay away from this company if you are a student. I am shocked why is this even allowed in the USA. I see no motivation in the coworkers. this is why the government jobs sucks because of the greedy contractors like KBR. I wish i could give them 0 star.
