Pros

stability in paying every two weeks

Cons

You need to continually prepare an exit strategy while still trying to maintain that you support whatever management wants. Management will take what it wants. Company good for starters but they need to leave the company soon and not stay. Toxic culture in too many places in too many aspects while company promoting inclusion.

Terrible culture

Pros

-It's a great place to do engineering work; the challenges of defense contracting are extremely interesting. -Good opportunities to build skills and grow your career if you are willing to network. -It's an extremely stable industry. -As an entry level/early career employee, you work 40 hours per week; no more, no less. This can be a pro or a con depending on where you're coming from; the one caveat being that hours are fairly inflexible. If you need to do overtime it is paid.

Cons

-If you're not a white man, it's pretty inhospitable out there. The casual sexism and racism by fellow employees is off the charts. Upper management is pushing D&I initiatives, which are great, but it really doesn't translate into a lower level cultural change. You can succeed professionally, but day-to-day interactions with coworkers will be exhausting to navigate. -You can negotiate market rate pay coming in, but you won't see much salary growth which is a huge issue if you're early career. (Perhaps not so much if you're coasting to retirement as many are.) -Benefits are mediocre; would expect better from a company whose main benefit is stability and work/life balance. Decent 401k match, high deductible health plan, small bonuses, no stock.

Pros

Its a good job BUT ONLY if you are from the area.

Cons

Nobody that is not from the area stays even 2 years. managing culture is punitive and makes up policies that affect everyone rather than addressing the problem employees. Toxic employees dominate many areas because they continue to not manage individually. Touch labor is how they make money yet they treat them like high school and good employees fo 10 years plus with no promotion and nominal 1% raises.
