Pros

The Springfield office culture was excellent. Nice people who are good at their jobs. Employees generally care about their work and are technically successful. Family friendly workplace. Pay and benefits are decent.

Cons

Recent high level management changes have been a bad experience. NSS has had 2 new division VPs in the past few years, each a downgrade on the previous leader. Current leadership lacks understanding of the business and has run off many of the best project managers and top technical performers. Each group is expected to do it's own business development with minimal support at a division level. All of NSS shares one business developer, leading to many missed opportunities. BD resources are focused on not losing existing work in stagnant areas instead of growing the business. Office culture is changing for the worse. Much of the new work is offsite so the main campus is a ghost town. Senior people are leaving rapidly. Senior corporate management is well meaning but indecisive.

Pros

Okay work life balance, average benefits, work can be interesting with right contact but those opportunities can be hard to come by.

Cons

Management is not transparent, most policies are 20 years old and little information is given on how to advance, when new management spots were opened there was no competition they were handed out to favorites. Low pay due to aggressive bidding on contacts, people have been asked to donate hours in the past because contacts were underbid to win.
