Pros

-Benefits package is fantastic. Health, vision, dental, retirement - the whole deal. -Regular 2 weeks vacation to start, but opportunity for unpaid time off if requested. -Plenty of opportunity to move around within the company. Employee just needs to take the initiative. -Enjoyable coworkers!

Cons

-Still working for a company that manufactures weapons, no matter how you look at it. -Easy for complacent coworkers to get stuck in a rut. Not necessarily encouraged to advance your own career.

Pros

Large long term programs. Possibility to move to different programs/different parts of the company. Possibility of changing job focus to a different area of interest in engineering. Much better than average benefits and about average salary. Very good continuing education support.

Cons

Very large management structure that can result in long decision making process. Difficulty achieving next skill level at some programs/sites due to lack of program budget. Sparse communication from senior management during periods of program uncertainty.
