Pros

Easy interview process, weekly free food from intern events. Gives you invaluable experience you can leverage for other internships / full-time opportunities.

Cons

No technical growth, no development of industry-relevant skills, position seems unnecessary and organization didn't seem equipped to utilize an intern. Occasional outbursts from management of blatant condescention and disrespect based on what was ultimately proven to be either one-sided misunderstandings or willful ignorance.

Pros

Pay was pretty good and I received a raise after six months. Work life balance was really good. There is some flexibility in when you come and go and more senior employees could work remotely.

Cons

I joined the company during a hiring surge, but a few months later they started layoffs in my department. I was lucky to keep my job but many good employees were let go through no fault of their own.

Pros

Fun team that could be miserable together and bond over it You can get experience doing 9 different jobs for your resume Career opportunities are there, but depending on your program, management will always want to hire a non-Leidos contractor instead of promote from within.

Cons

When one person on the team leaves, is laid off, or out on medical leave, they don't back-fill that position and expect the remaining teammates to pick up the slack without any increase in pay. Employees expected to work unpaid overtime (actually told it's against company policy to pay employees for working overtime) Gender pay gap is strong here; men make up to 20% more for doing the same job (or a level lower) as their women coworkers Benefits received depend on your team: Some programs do not allow their employees to work from home, despite Leidos corporate having a policy that allows for WFH. That means some Leidos employees get benefits that others do not. Health benefits are pretty awful and PTO is capped at 20 days Management is unaware of the actual hard workers; every bonus that went out on the program went to someone who didn't actually do their job--someone else did it for them and made them look good.
