Hands off management who let's you do your job. If you needed something, you could always reach out, but they let you do the job.

I would say, that once you are in a position, there is not much room for advancement in this company.

Pros

Get to work on advanced research topics in areas of interest to the Air Force. Somewhat flexible work hours.

Cons

The flexibility of the job and work environment is up to the government manager in your area. In my case, my government manager is inflexible and I wasn't allowed to work from home.
