Pros

While there were some decent people at DISA in Montgomery, there were definite cliques. If you're ex military, you're likely all set as I was. Pay was decent, but not great. I left.

Cons

Credentials mean more than competence. Did approved training for "certifications" that didn't count. Will not pay for classes / books for certifications. Lied about needing certifications, ended up needing them. As an engineer, I designed many of the systems they used, but still needed some joke 3rd party certification. When asked why I didn't have any certifications, I'd half joke, "I know people who have certifications and I'm nothing like them". You have to have approval and go through so much BS to actually do work.
