Pros

- Reasonably good salary. - Good work/life balance after you've gained some seniority. - Stable company, though your particular contract may not be - typical for defense work.

Cons

- Advancement is on you - you must develop your own career. In my libertarian view, that is OK. - Upper management doesn't communicate personally with the workers - sort of a class system.

Pros

It is similar to other aerospace companies. You have job security if you are in top 30% of their work force.

Cons

They do not have a culture. They need to take care their employees a little better. It is like working in any big company.

Pros

Competitive salary (coming in the door Benefits start on day one Savings Plan (401K) and Retirement Plan (vested after 3 years)

Cons

High over head ((i.e. too many high level managers, BD, sector positions that do not directly support a customer base, etc.) Too many 'leaders' (all drinking the muscle juice and not talking to each other) Little to no growth potential (depending were you are - on contract or support position) Compensation behind on equity adjustments (wait until people threaten to leave).
