Downhill fast

Pros

You get to work with NASA and colleagues and managers are all interested and intelligent people

Cons

The company is going downhill at an exponential rate. Anemic raises to convince the government they aren't wasting money just increases churn which drives up the cost in the end. Awful communication from corporate when they make changes to internal tools without ever seeming to run them by the people who actually use them. IT help desk and configuration is managed remotely from India and the staff in the US is stretched thin fixing issues from that and can barely spare time for other projects that they're need for. Has lost several contracts in a row and is in limbo as two more are up for recompete right now. They seem to be spinning off orgs to have more diverse income streams without much success while also buying the C-suite new cars (for the company fleet of course) at a prodigious rate.

Nepotism

Pros

I work on a government contract. The leave benefit is one of the best.

Cons

There was a forced outing of the previous president in order to keep the company "in the family". The current president and CEO are married to each other. The previous president was extremely likeable and he was connected to the staff. The current president doesn't even come close to him. We haven't seen him at an on campus function like we did the previous president and he comes across as whiny. There are also several rumors that he has a hot temper and displays it when he thinks no one is looking. The CEO's education doesn't match the company's focus and she come across as boring and stiff, like she's reading from a teleprompter. Recently received a "Wellbox" in the mail. It was a complete waste of money. Didn't care for anything in it. I would have rather had the money they spent on it. They push socializing outside work hours too much. The health benefits are barely average. Grateful they didn't win the contract.
