Pros

Outstanding people. Great Benefits. Lovely facilities.

Cons

Massive overemphasis on business development. You could be the best engineer, analyst, whatever. If you're not putting in 10+ hours of biz dev time a week, on top of your "regular" job, you're not going to get promoted. As a result, a good-old-boy network runs the firm, AND insures that most of the rewards go to the "Upper Three" grades.

Pros

Strong mission-focused culture with meaningful work supporting national security missions. Great exposure to diverse projects, talented teammates, flexible work arrangements, and opportunities to develop skills across security, intelligence, cyber, and consulting. Benefits and professional development resources are solid.

Cons

The company culture and employee experience have changed significantly in recent years. Earlier years felt more mission-focused and employee-centered, while recent organizational shifts, government spending pressures, and increased emphasis on becoming a technology-focused company have created uncertainty for some employees. Frequent changes in priorities, restructuring, and business decisions can make job stability feel less predictable. Employees may sometimes feel disconnected from leadership, and concerns raised through HR or management channels do not always appear to result in meaningful action or transparency.
