Avantages
- 4/10 schedule makes for great flexibility - like working at multiple companies with opportunity to try new things - facilities in many cities to live where you’d like - moving packages with employment - fair performance review process (depending on your manager, but most are good on the engineering side) - workforce is both young and old, with little experience in middle management that can make you stand out - great culture and morals from 99%, all that comes with normal bad actors that are present anywhere
Inconvénients
- poor compensation relative to the tech industry to stay competitive with government contracts - most valuable work is done behind closed doors - outdated processes and facilities that are slowly improving as contracts are won - no free coffee / food like the trendy tech companies
