Pros

Pay is competitive and in general you are left alone to do your work if you are at a remote site.

Cons

Company has become too top heavy with C levels, SVP and VP's. They have updrafted all the responsibilities of customer facing managers, making their gloried timesheet signers. Results has been indifference by on the line managers, and little motivation to win new work. For employees, benefits are very average, but cost to employee is higher that typical defense contractor. Little chance of advancement; they will hire people over you from bigger defense contractors instead of nuturing internal talent.

Pros

STG management listened to their people and really seemed to care about developing employees and making them more than just slot-fillers. The salaries were fair and upper management was very approachable. Lots of opportunity for advancement for motivated and ambitious people. This was the only contractor I've worked for where I truly felt like an employee of a company and not just bound to the government portion of the contract.

Cons

The follow through on paperwork was pretty bad, mistakes were made frequently by upper management. The fact that STG deals with primarily contract work meant that you really were only an employee until another contract was awarded to another company. My time with STG was much shorter than I would have liked. When our contracted was awarded to another company, STG expressed a desire to move some of us to other contracts so that we could remain employees but ultimately it never happened due to the lack of available positions and not enough money on those other contracts.

Pros

Great work/life balance, from a technical standpoint I had access to a lot of equipment that aided in training myself. I was able to participate in some pretty cool projects.

Cons

Low salary, no quality formal training offered. Benefits were not good but they were adequate. Middle management doesn't really work for their employees, just seemed to do the bare minimum. There was a lot of nepotism where I was.
