Pros

- matching 401k: they match 50% of the first 8% you contribute - flexible schedule, work from home may be available (but it's getting more difficult to get approved) - usually okay with 40.0 hours/week

Cons

It doesn't matter how good you are as a developer - years of experience are HEAVILY weighted. Talented 25 year olds can out-code a developer making twice their salary

Pros

Great benefits, that begin the day you begin. The organization cares about their employees and when Sequestration forced layoffs, LM insisted on doing the right thing and giving the affected employees a 2 week notice. They provided help through their Career Talent group: on resumes, cover letters and interviewing.

Cons

The ratio of employees to management was high in the area I worked. There was no recognized team leader. With employees in several different buildings or even different areas of the same building, it was difficult to communicate with each other on projects. But this is more attributed to the placement of the employees by the FAA, to whom the LM had a contract.
