      Pros

      There are usually a lot of positions at NGIT, with 99% of them working for the Air Force. There were a lot of fine people working there; made some lasting relationships.

      Cons

      The benefits absolutely suck. First of all, they take quite a bit out of your paycheck every month. Secondly, the coverage is not that great. They will only pay up to 90% of prescription medications, which is fine when the medication cost $50.00. What about when the medication cost thousands of dollars. Management usually consist of former Air Force officers that retire and then "cross the fence". Therefore, there's quite a bit of a "good ole boy" system with regards to advancement and opportunity.

      Pros

      Beneifts are outstanding, full tuition reimbursement always a plus, middle management is good, pension program, vacation time is always approved.

      Cons

      Northrop Grumman doesn't pay as much as the other DOD contractors in Orlando, pretty much middle of the run. Promotions can be slow, you have to ask for them, don't expect them to just give them to you. As a new hire, you only get 2 weeks of vacation.

      A safe place to make a living.

      Pros

      NG has a worldwide presence, so relocating and moving between projects is very possible. Employees who are laid off due to projects ending are typically able to find work elsewhere within the company.

      Cons

      Large and disorganized company. There is little to know repeatability or knowledge sharing. Like all government contractors, the goal is to bill for bodies, the quality is a secondary concern. This is not a problem that affects NG only, ALL government contractors are like this.
