Pros

- Job security - People (not management) are generally great - 401k match - If you are clever, you can pretty much do nothing and do well there

Cons

- Stressful with little reward - Management plays favorites - Salary (each raise funnels salaries to the same amount as everyone else in your pay grade regardless of effort put in) - Paid time off is below market standard - No paid maternity / paternity leave - Forced to work overtime (sometimes paid) - You will not learn anything useful to progress your career - The only way you get promoted is after a fixed amount of time and you are one of their favorites - Promotion opportunities are limited - If you work there too long, you will not be marketable anywhere else - Parking is really bad

Pros

Decent first year job, gets you a security clearance. Good work life balance for the most part. Most of the people are easy to work with.

Cons

Education benefits were slashed in half, poor raises company wide, keep trying to cut costs. Mostly paper work, reviewing and writing letters

Pros

Fairly laid back, not that much pressure. Work can be very interesting depending on your department

Cons

Overcrowded facility. Company does not seem to care about employees one ounce. Benefits just seem to get worse every year. Poor raises. Employees often describe themselves as a "warm body with a degree."
