Pros

-Great work schedule -Great benefits -Good pay -Great locations to choose from

Cons

There was no congruency across the organization. Had a fantastic experience in Tucson and had great reviews. Transferred to El Segundo for a new position and they had no work and management was not flexible to let you utilize other skills you have--subsequently I received poor ratings as I was new and had no work. As a Mechanical Engineer I had done a lot of software and electrical work (was a former manufacturing electrician and IT tech) and my department actually took the work away from me and made me sit on overhead. People at the California site don't work together. Due to the amount of layoffs over the past 10 years people have become very paranoid and will throw you under the bus even if you are performing. Everyone there is just scared for their job. Its a sad situation really. Its a shame because I really enjoyed the industry, but when there is no work for your group...get out. I made the mistake of waiting it out and I was laid off.

Pros

Offers competitive salary. Diverse workforce, lot of opportunity to work outside core expertise. Like most tech companies it does not have a culture where working over weekend is almost mandatory. 9/80 schedule means every other Friday off, which offers great benefit and almost addiction.

Cons

Working with government means lot of rules inhibiting innovation and efficiency. Have to fill up time card every day which is hilarious. It means people signed up for a project cannot work in other project, which is single largest contributer to inefficiency.
