Pros

Now have catastrophic medical insurance

Cons

2018 Medical insurance costs 300% more than last year and has minimal coverage. I guess it's a little better than nothing. Guess Marylin needed a pay raise.

Pros

Most programs are low stress and can actually work a 40 hour work week. Other programs are in constant fighting fire mode.

Cons

For software, do not expect to use the latest technology to help the customer. You can expect to be literally at least15 years behind the current technology trends. Example right now, containers and vms are not widely used. Do not expect agile development in most cases, mosts contracts are still waterfall. No matter what they say, it's still waterfall execution from contract and upper management. Due to security concerns, most libraries and software languages are restricted to older versions or just not used at all.

Pros

Potential to work on interesting projects. Managers seem flexible for systems engineering in letting you do something different if you are unhappy with what you are doing and are interested in something else if there is availability. Helpful managers and coworkers

Cons

The company is very cheap towards their employees The only health benefits are high deductible plans The pay and benefits are not competitive compared to other large engineering companies You only get 40 hours of sick days a year. If you go over you owe them 40 hours of unpaid overtime plus the number of hours you go over 40. ex. 42 hours of sick days = 42 hours of overtime. They took away their fitness program that assists in paying for your gym membership They will not pay you more money for getting a Masters Degree once you are there
