CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It's a very big corporation with lots of people, so if you're really smart and work hard, you will climb the corporate ladder fairly quickly.

Cons

Limited opportunities if you do not have security clearance. Lots of business depends on government, so it's not always the place where the most current/trendy stuff gets made.

Pros

There really aren't any anymore

Cons

Used to be a great place, but now they are just worried about how to cut costs by removing benefits, training, and generally having a "be grateful you have a job" attitude towards their employees.
