      Pros

      Pros: friendly culture, can be a good place to learn things about SATCOM, can work on interesting programs

      Cons

      Cons: salary structure is poor compared to other San Diego companies, no titles for technical people - so effectively prevents people from climbing up, management portrays this as lack of bureaucracy - but is very liberal in giving titles to management folks, can end up doing crap stuff if you are not careful - though that would be true true anywhere else anyways.

      Pros

      Hugely knowledgeable co-workers, brilliant CEO, competitive--if not always top-of-the-line--compensation (I was particularly fortunate on this one), SoCal-style compassion and flexibility regarding work/life balance, excellent non-core staff (especially in HR), attractive facilities (including policy of offices rather than cubes.)

      Cons

      Not a ton of flexibility or professional growth opportunities within the company--once you're slotted in to make a particular kind of widget, you'll make that kind of widget for a long time.
