Pros

* its a job, they pay money * some of the projects are cutting edge, and you can learn from from them * So far still decent on the vacation time (and you will need it)

Cons

* Expect to be overworked and under paid * Virtually no promotion path for sole contributors * VERY political * Indecisive management will change core aspects of a project on a dime, without any regard to the technical issue that will arise, and demand the project will still be delivered on time * Benefits are getting eroded (like all the industry for that matter) * You can not work from home * Zero chance of getting your full bonus, unless you are at least an ED or higher

Pros

They treat people well overall. It's all about connecting to others to get anything done, so if you're great with networking and maintaining connections it's a good place to work. Honestly the kindest layoff I've ever experienced, including genuine internal support to find another job. Still doing meaningful DOI work, including some of the best friendly benefits out there.

Cons

If you don't have a highly specialized cyber security skill set or work at a main campus in Texas, Ohio, Delaware, New York or New Jersey don't expect to ever move up the ladder. Staying focused on goals OR successfully communicating strategy pivots seems to be beyond most MDs in Global Technology. They seem to be having a re-org problem at the moment. I had 5 managers in the last 365 days I was there, hardly time to get any work done and then challenged at the end to show impact or delivery, all you can do is shrug and say 'tell me how, when you moved me every 2 months?"
