BBN Technologies -- A very good place to work and grow (for computer scientists and the like)

Staff scientist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It has the best benefits and potential for growth that I have ever seen in any company I have worked for. In particular, for someone interested in doing research and development, it has the potential to allow all employees to do any amount or mixture of both.

Cons

There are few, if any, downsides to working here. I would say that the biggest issue I have with it is contracting nearly exclusively with the military (e.g., DARPA), and not everyone has moral issues with that.

If you have a PhD and are able to perform high quality research US DoD, this is your job

Business Outlook

Pros

Interesting projects in a wide-breadth of topics. Great work-life balance. There is a great opportunity to publish and continue doing research if you can get on the right projects. This company treats its employees really well.

Cons

Raytheon asserts their overlord-ness from time to time. The projects available are dictated by what the upper-level scientists can bring in. Also the company is too focused on work for DARPA.
