Pros

Best and the brightest, that industry has to offer. The work is challenging, interesting, and significant. The compensation package is one of the best I have seen.

Cons

The low turnover and the caliber people they hire, promotions are slow. The pay is a little lower than in the private sector, but the compensation package makes up for it.

Pros

- Important, satisfying work in the public interest - Abundance of technical challenges and interesting, leading-edge technology projects - Freedom to learn and grow in a variety of technical disciplines - Freedom and mobility to change careers while staying in the same company - Great compensation, benefits, training and educational assistance - Job offerings at numerous domestic and international sites provide cultural opportunities if you are willing to move - Excellent work/life balance - Phased retirement that allows company to retain highly experienced staff well beyond retirement age - Intelligent, motivated and committed people

Cons

- Congressional ceiling limits company growth and ability to support our nation. While this keeps us focused on the most important work most of the time, the artificial limit is often cause for internal turmoil between competing business units due to the zero sum game.
