Pros

The people are top notch (coworkers)

Cons

Ethics violations left and right. People are moved into jobs that are not advertised. Husbands and wives sit across from each other in high positions. Managers keep people from advancing. The managers hire people that do not meet the job listing requirements when good talent has applied for positions. No one holds them accountable. Ethics is horrible.

Pros

9/80 work schedule, tuition reimbursement, winning contracts

Cons

Leadership is like a members only club and based off social capital rather than ability, experience, and drive. Leaders lead by brute force not interested in developing existing talent its a conform or else mentality, don't think just put your head down and do what you are told. Morale is extremely low and with the amount of work coming in I foresee major issues in meeting that growth with the state of affairs internally. Really just an unpleasant work environment and people continue to depart. Tenure is definitely reducing on average, outside the folks that have been here many years already and carry those key friendships amongst the ranks.

Pros

Above par, office space. BAE's cubicles are very plush and roomy. They offer a break room, outfitted with several recreational opportunities. Also 'Huddle rooms' for private conversations and or matters.

Cons

Their compensation is below 'below par''. Promotions 'only' are rewarded to those who are within the cliques and or the 'boys club' Many individuals with more impact on the projects at hand are overlooked and the rewards go to lessor folks. BAE is a 'dog eat, dog' environment, Sad. Personal growth, is not garnered, within the confines of the establishment. Their inability to 'think outside of the box' away from the main client, is frustrating and unfortunately, disabling to certain offices. Many folks have been dismissed from their posts, because of their narrow mindedness.
