Pros

Great work environment, everyone is friendly and helpful. Fast paced atmosphere which means that it is never boring.

Cons

If you find the right supervisor you can get promoted quickly.... if you don't then promotions are hard to get.

Pros

You're working with the brightest people on the planet! Having a security clearance is awesome. The briefings and meetings were fascinating. There is room for growth and you will only be working with the best of the best. They foster a great atmosphere.

Cons

The pay is horrible, you will go broke. Everything has a process and it takes a year to learn the complex systems there. The middle management I worked for were really harsh and frankly mean. It all depends on who you work for. Just know that you can't make a mistake...ever!

Pros

It's a great place to work on interesting problems with intelligent people. It's satisfying to know that we help improve the rationality of government decision-making. One of the best things is the almost-nonexistent hierarchy; there are hardly any tiers of management between researchers and executives. Furthermore, it has a fairly relaxed culture in comparison to the typical corporate feeling.

Cons

While the overall benefits package is all ok, my salary has been unsatisfactory. I'm hoping that I can remedy this through a change in job titles. Otherwise, I may leave.
