Pros

Really good pay and benefits. Flexible work life balance. The senior / director levels really set the tone for a program. As a result, some programs are more fun, easier to handle the challenges then others.

Cons

Constant layoffs for last three years. System of layoff includes "bumping" which is laying off people who's jobs still exist because there is another "more qualified" person who can do the job . Management at Sunnyvale Space Systems is poor. Team work is poor. Laziness is rampant. Team dynamics are poor. Very insular culture.

Pros

Training opportunities are great depending on your management. Stability - depending on which department you're in. Diverse opportunities for expanding or keeping your job.

Cons

You are replaceable, simply an asset to get the work done, so don't expect to be treated as a human with feeling and emotion. Behave as a machine to get the work done and you'll be okay if you do it well. Management and Union cannot get along - both act like little children arguing in a playground.
