Tough place to be successful

Pros

Big, stable company. The checks don't bounce. Decent benefits, though in Jul;y 2012 they drastically increased the cost to employees for health insurance. This COULD BE a great place to work.

Cons

All internal processes must comply with federal gov't standards and requirements, regardless of whether or not you are working on a fed project. As a result, working at NG is just like working at the DOD or any federal agency. Red tape, bureaucratic infighting and ridiculously complex and convoluted internal processes stifle the ability to get things done in a timely fashion. The customer is almost an afterthought to NG. Since I've been here, we've lost more deals due to our own internal incompetence and inability to deliver a timely proposal response than we have lost to genuine competition.

Pros

Good people, well intended leadership who are willing to empower if you prove yourself.

Cons

Limited opportunities to be promoted in Boulder, pay is based more on the time you're there than performance. Big company mentality makes it hard to get things done many times. Often a Sub to LM or others in the business area, also makes everyday a little more difficult than other places I've been.
