Pros

Bolt Beranek and Newman is the original government contractor that created the standards and protocols that the Internet is based on under DARPA contract. It's the home of a huge number of other firsts, and continues to be active in all things Internet related and security related. This firm is truly a leader throughout engineering circles. While the ownership has changed more than once it has been in continuous operation since 1948. Originally formed by a collection of professors from MIT, the environment and culture remains research-heavy but this is also an organization that applies what it knows and performs the work.

Cons

Those from academia may feel more at home than those product-only backgrounds.

Great if you bring in work, or know someone who does!

Pros

- Flexibility - Pay is fair. - Benefits are good. - Growth is great if you bring in work (or know someone who does). Not so great if you don't. - Values scholarly work, but values money more.

Cons

- Will discreetly layoff employees - Good ole boy network - Very cliquish environment. Either you are in, or you are out. - Won't tell you that your job is in jeopardy. - Managers practice unfair or deceitful acts to eliminate employees who are lightly billable, or who are perceived unfavorably. - People who bring in work basically control the destiny (or fate) of those who don't.
