Not keeping up with industry and government trends of mission transitions to private sector.
Need to change positions every 2-3 years if not an engineer, and to maintain at least 50% + workload on program work vs internal work or risk being cut if times get tough with customer awards. When times get tough, you will be put on a shortlist to try to find a new job within the company, but with not enough time to actually get through NG’s own internal interviewing timelines. Immediately up your 401k and be prepared to be let go in a reduction in force. They don’t give you enough time to actually get placed, and once you’re severed you become an outside applicant.
Trending back to in office work, even though employees work with different offices across the country, or have long meeting commutes across onsite campuses vs quick virtual transitions. Awful audio in conference rooms, making hybrid meetings not ideal.
Women still seem to be sidelined in some areas and hired at lower pay.
