Pros

Steady work Interesting Products 9/80 work week

Cons

Can't get promoted - hiring freeze/popularity contest So much middle management Told to go lean while you get emails about how well profits are Don't replace workers who leave = crazy workload

Pros

Systems engineering has a ton of opportunities for early career employees. The work is challenging and I get a lot of satisfaction out of my job. Every manager I've had so far has been absolutely awesome to work with. Great employees and a great company.

Cons

With most defense contracts you're going to be working in a windowless cave. Salary progression can be slow but it's a stable job.
