Pros

Flexible schedule - 9/80, but anyone can flex their hours as long as you get 80 hours in each pay period. Decent starting compensation - 20% raise over Lockheed Martin for same job grade. Good benefits - good health insurance options. Job security- when positions go away, the company helps find another job and keeps engineers on overhead as long as it takes.

Cons

Cube farm - huge rooms subdivided into aisles of 4 person cubicles. Lack of leadership - unclear and inconsistent goals. Several programs are perpetually behind schedule and over budget. No accountability - you can be a star and get lots done or coast... nobody notices or cares either way Subpar merit increases - 2% even for high contributors... bad move. Mediocre and overpriced food - food services provided by Eurest

Pros

Every other Friday off, Great people to work with (includes engineers), Good benefits, Fitness Center, matching 401K now up to 6% since pensions are no longer offered. Challenging technologies to work on. Clean world class manufacturing facilities. Lots of training available if you have a smart manager who wants you to improve.

Cons

Hard to move up in a pay grade unless you move to another business unit. The ugly part is you are the first to be RIF'd if you moved to a new business unit and there are DOD budget cuts or the new contracts are delayed or did not get awarded. Like all companies some managers promote their suck ups into leadership positions and you have to learn how to deal/work with them if you need to stay put.
