Pros

- Pretty flexible schedule and usually only have to work 40-50 hours (depending on the program) - Entire week off for a holiday shutdown in December - Remote 95% of the time

Cons

- Lost a lot technically talented people within the last two years and more tenure people are having to carry the burden - Pretty understaffed but still going through layoffs (excuse me, "RIF"s) - Pay isn't great - Pigeonholing yourself into the defense industry

Pros

As with any defense position, job security. Good co-workers but this is very department/program dependent.

Cons

Hard to grow after L3 unless you go into management

Pros

Big Name once you get in its easy to retain work

Cons

My particular program was a meat grinder. They just throw money and bodies at the problem and at times it was truly bewildering.
