Pros

Friendly and professional co-workers. I enjoy supporting the mission at NGA "Know the Earth Show the Way". I like supporting the military and their specific missions.

Cons

Stress of working in a high security environment. Quick turn around of information and data adds to stress in a highly secure information environment.

Pros

I have been at the NGA for 6 months and thoroughly enjoy it. In my work role, I have been given a good amount of freedom to pursue interesting projects, within the scope of mission goals. I have also been placed with a very good group of coworkers and have found every one to be nice.

Cons

The big downside is the usual "big, slow" government versus "quick, nimble" industry. Getting any requests fulfilled takes a long time.
