      Pros

      Slow pace work for the new graduates. Managers and senior coworkers are very supportive. Cheap housing (spend less than 10% of your income on housing). You have a lot of downtimes to pursue other hobbies and interests. No traffic in Cedar Rapids. Locals are nice and polite.

      Cons

      Cedar Rapids is not a good place for singles and young people. Nightlife sucks. No clubs! People prefer passive entertainment like drinking.

      Pros

      Regular yearly merit raises from 3-4%. Out of cycle promotions common if you demonstrate positive performance under higher than typical workloads or time constraints. Value your experience with standard company software, technology, and processes. Great place to start within the defense industry. The emphasize passing down the knowledge of experienced engineers to the younger employees.

      Cons

      Training can be lacking if more seasoned employees do not have the bandwidth. Deadlines can either be hard to meet on short notice or not given a hard-set deadline at all. Learning curve can take sometimes before real contributions can be made to some projects.
