Pros

Great people but they are now a rare breed. Few left to make it worth being there. I would avoid this company if possible. You could be jobless soon after arriving!

Cons

Down size, down size, down size. Story of the company. 500+ employees two years ago. Now under 200 in Austin and shrinking. Yet another layoff! How many can it survive? It will not survive long. Current employees hold on for compensation upon lay-off. Management employees let go get great compensation and advanced notice.

Pros

Diverse product lines offer a variety of skill areas to explore and develop an individuals career. Mobile individuals are highly regarded. Good rewards and recognition program for self starters. Solid leadership development program just starting to catch on - and it will make a difference sooner rather than later.

Cons

Like most other defense contractors they are scrambling a bit to stay relevant with their customers.
