Pros

Well, I really had to dig deep to find a good reason. They do have a "pension plan" for what its worth. You have to stay with them for 5 years to be vested and I can't think of many folks that would stay with them for that long. I can't think of any other good reasons.

Cons

They have a well deserved reputation as one of the cheapest outfits in the business. Not only in compensation, but in training as well. The turnover is very high on this contract. Folks tend to stay here only long enough to find a better offer.

Pros

Genuine pension plan! I don't know how it compares to other companies that have pension plans, but if I stay for 5 years, I can expect about 12% of my salary in retirement. We have some top-notch people.

Cons

To be fair, our office is small, and opportunities for government contractors are shrinking in this locality. Nevertheless, local management is not very involved, and distant management shows no interest whatever in this office. I don't feel like a part of a large company, rather just a vehicle for sending money to HQ. Paltry vacation allowance (2 weeks for first 4 years), very out of step with Silicon Valley. No education benefit unless you're in a degree program - they must think their online courses are adequate. No pay bonuses worth speaking of. If contracts don't come through on time, they would rather furlough employees than let them do training on company time. Matching contributions to 401K don't amount to much (seems to be max $1500) and there's a 4 or 5 year vesting period; however, we do have a pension plan.
