Pros

Great compensation, good health benefits, and a 9/80 schedule. Lots of teamwork and pleasant working conditions.

Cons

Poor management decisions, did not look to the future, kept "all their eggs in one government/military basket". Poor ethics starting with upper management down. Low morale waiting for next ax to fall.

Pros

Interesting technology and good working environment. Local (Gaithersburg) management is motivated and competent. Good compensation and benefits. They support continuing education, too.

Cons

Sales depend on federal funding of government contracts so slumps and periodic layoffs are inevitable. Upper management is trying to restructure the organization to be profitable but may not understand the mix of businesses involved so it's been chaotic the last couple years. The business unit I worked for didn't value technical marketing or the importance of managing people and didn't seem to know how to do business development.
