Pros

Pros: -personally I thought my salary was pretty good, includes a small %-based yearly bonus -work is really easy and mundane -good work life balance, 9/80s...you can basically just show up and collect your paycheck

Cons

cons: -really depressing, everyone is complacent and does the bare minimum -work is not valued, no recognition. often feel invisible -no upward growth, personally or career wise -no emphasis on training or improvement of your work -bad processes all around, basic things require a lot of work -anyone who is actually valuable is overworked and generally unavailable if you need them -really awful communication and cohesiveness between similar groups. 3 different teams could be working on the same thing and no one would know. -more focus on hitting deliverables rather than any quality of product -feels like a sinking ship lately -handled covid pretty poorly, forced an early return to office and then seems like they just ceased all communications about it

Pros

Engineers are given more responsibility than they would find at other companies due to staffing shortages. Opportunities to work directly with vendors and suppliers.

Cons

Unable to retain staff due to below average pay and benefits. Dwindling pipeline of funded projects/programs. Poor industry reputation.
