      Pros

      Great growth opportunities, good salaries, and benefits. Lots of opportunities from professional jobs to hourly positions

      Cons

      Defense contractors rules and regulations. Some managers haven't got the message that the gold old boy ER is gone but most are quite good

      No clear vision for future success

      Pros

      Good location in southwest Austin. If you're lucky, you occasionally get the opportunity to work on new things (IRAD). Great people to work with who become great network assets (many employees have left after being recruited by other former employees)

      Cons

      No insight into company's future past the next few weeks at a time. As a result, management direction is very reactive and not very proactive. Not able to do things to improve current products or processes unless you have "direct charge", but there's never enough time under the direct charge to improve existing items. Much of the work we've had lately has been limited to bug fixes the customer prioritizes, not too much new features or fixing internally discovered bugs. Many coworkers have left for other jobs, leaving the rest of us scrambling. Extremely hard to get a raise or promotion unless you already are in a level of management.

      Pros

      Flexible with your personal life and great people to work with. The people make the company as well as opportunity to float to different projects if you desire.

      Cons

      Work can get extremely boring if you stay on one project. Projects are frequently rushed and management expects you to work LOTS of overtime.
