Pros

The people here are very helpful and want you to succeed. They understand that you don't know everything, and are willing to set aside time to explain things. I also like the Agile software development approach, as well as the huge emphasis this company puts on being ethical. The ability to move around to different areas, not only within the single site, but also the entire network. The evaluation for promotions is performance-based, which I feel is most fair.

Cons

Since we are working with legacy code, we are not at the cusp of new technology. In certain areas, they are, but not with software.

Pros

They paid me more than any other software internship in the twin cities would. I learned I never want to work in the defense industry.

Cons

I worked most of the time in KShell(80s technology) on software that had been written in the 90s and abandoned. They never implemented anything I made, so the internship was basically a joke. The environment is very gray and when you look at the corporate hierarchy you realize it's 9+ levels of management that don't do anything but come by once a month to recite platitudes and corporate propaganda. Most of the people here sit on six figures while the air traffic control software hasn't changed much in decades. Don't go here if you want a modern software environment to build useful relevant skills for the 21st century.
