Pros

Company will sponsor your clearance. 15k a year in tuition assistance. Can work from home when not needed at office. Can do the bare minimum and get a paycheck. People working at the site make it work.

Cons

No reason to stay after you get a clearance. No reason to stay after you learn system(s) this site is working on and jumping to Lockheed. No training, reading PowerPoint presentations mostly. The quality of work done is reflective of the salary.

Pros

Big company benefits. Good healthcare and PTO. 401(k) match is generous.

Cons

No direction. No local engineering leadership. Uncertain future. No product roadmap. No local HR or support staff. Toxic culture due to poor site leadership that has driven away countless engineers and engineering managers. Exponential decline since BAE purchased us.
