Pros

Their release process is very well executed and articulate.

Cons

My lead chewed me out the first day and never stopped. Apparently, she was afraid of me because I had a long resume. She also had issues with men, particularly white men. The guy before did not last a month. I started my job on Monday and had renewed my job search on Friday. It took me six months to find another job. When I gave them two weeks notice, they fired me immediately for quitting.

Pros

+ Great team and collaborative environment. They trust you have the skills and experience and support you how you need it. The managers care, and it's a fairly flat organization. + Training opportunities! If you see a certification or professional development training that interests you (engineering, proj mgmt, Agile, leadership, SE, etc) ask and they can pay for it. If it supports the customer's mission they can ensure you're paid for your time and not doing training after-hours + Enhanced leave benefits for veterans, great place for vets + Great workplace for LGBT, women, and woman engineers, none of the typical problems encountered in industry. + Yearly pay raise and bonus + Flexible schedules and good work/life balance + Reacted properly to Covid with teleworking highly encouraged after customer coordination

Cons

- No clear path for promotion - Depending on the customer/program, the workload can be sporadic and task loads unbalanced, but you get support from management that offsets that, and once you hit your hours, you hit your hours for that pay period.

Pros

Lots of Contracts so lots of different jobs. Some contracts are for cool agencies

Cons

You're just a number and they will not hesitate to let you go Youre never likely to get a substantial raise Growth is fairly stagnant. Prepare to have to wait 6-10 years for a real opportunity to open up Benefits are terrible. Hopefully you have a partner with good ones you can use instead.
