Pros

If the traditional government contractor like Lockheed Martin or Boeing is a monolithic mainframe computer, Leidos is a decentralized distributed network united only in name and the color purple. This means the work you do depends entirely on your role and location. Working at one customer site won't be like working at another or working as management. Salary and benefits are pretty good. So is job security.

Cons

At a customer site, management might have no idea what you actually do or why. This makes knowing what you should be doing a test of your general competency in areas you may not have been hired for.

Pros

Paycheck and sometimes, flexible schedule.

Cons

Program keeps changing head manager (3 or 4 in the last year). Promotions within the program or hiring new people in important positions are not made public to the rest of the program leaving people to question what the status is of folks. All information is compartmentalized to a select few by management and then made public at time of action. This tosses everyone's schedule up in the air. Program and division and are highly unorganized and SOP's about how to go about stuff are not given out to most folks, leaving others to wonder what the process is to do simple things. Management keeps saying something will be given out, but after a couple years, I am not holding my breath. Communication was listed as something the program needed to work on by the customer a couple years ago and working groups were put together to brainstorm on how to fix things and they would be ongoing. After meetings with the customer, that all dropped by the wayside, much like a lot of other things. Things are started and then die on the vine. Program seems to be in retrograde due to changes in customer staffing and no interest by potential customers of the customer.
