Business Outlook

Pros

The Palmdale site is on a 9:80 schedule in that you get every other Friday off (can't choose which Friday), really awesome. The relocation package is pretty good. The work is incredible. For the vast majority of employees, can't access email when you aren't there, which is usually a huge plus. Get to work with hardworking, intelligent people (my experience so far).

Cons

Not the highest in terms of salaries, especially for PhDs. I would say slightly higher than average, but close to average. Massive corporate machine you have to navigate to get stuff done (e.g., things ordered, various trainings, etc.). No cafeteria or coffee stand on site.

Pros

Professional and driven environment. Everyone works really hard and seems to want to be there. Management seems to want to set you up for success.

Cons

Some parts of bureaucracy can slow things down. It is very hard to get all the software needed to complete your job.
