Pros

Good Salary, Interesting Work, Good Benefits

Cons

You are a contractor, although titled as an employee to pay a lower salary. At the end of projects, employee must find another position, or face automatic layoff. Layoffs are refined/routine to the point of being performed by email.

Pros

Good people, can't beat having every other Friday off, projects can be interesting sometimes. Depends on the procurement cycle.

Cons

HR is trying to flatten the organization and it is all but impossible to get a promotion unless you fit into the special "diversity" categories. Age discrimination is also rampant.

Pros

Good benefits, good pay, Corp. Vision decent. Appear to want to do thing but the senior managment needs to figure out what is the priority in a slow defense business. Seems like short term knee jerk reaction over what needs to happen over the long haul.

Cons

Local Syracuse management losses the message. Insider old boys club well in force. Good people laid off in favor of legacy old guard. Core funding needs to cut from obsolete technologies in favor of maintaining leadership in future developement.
