Pros

They process payroll on time, not right, but on time.

Cons

Constantly "upgrading" and implementing new systems and processes that are never fully tested or implemented correctly. New and improved systems are unable to correctly classify personnel, or update work locations which impacts pay and tax withholdings and creates several other issues... no fix in sight after months. Corporate management has endless excuses for limiting annual merit pools as much as possible even though you're forced to participate in the annual performance goals and go above and beyond normal job duties to meet the goals. It's gotten to the point where inflation has outpaced annual merit increases by 200% over the last 3yrs, and the employee's portion of medical benefits have increased enough to essentially net the merit increases to zero before factoring in any actual real life cost of living increases. Highest level management on projects are usually more concerned about their annual bonuses than managing and supporting their team who don't get bonuses or merit increases. No reward for loyalty. You can literally work for the company for 30yrs and you will get a generic printed certificate and the option to choose a piece of luggage or something similar. Competitors in the same industry give out a Rolex for 25yrs of service.

Pros

Engaging work in support of NASA missions. The people are great and the managers I worked with are some of the best professionals I have ever worked with.

Cons

There are the usual linea of red tape since it is work in support of a government mission. However, being NASA, once you get over the bureaucracy, it is rewarding work. In the end, we are keeping the International Space Station going with experiments. All of which are to help us figure out how to keep humans alive during prolonged space travel.
