Do NOT work for the commercial branch of ESA. The government branch is well-managed, progressive and professional. However, the commercial side (that handles the NAIA), is a complete nightmare. The management is unprofessional, off-putting, does not provide valuable input or criticism and there is no room for advancement. The commercial branch does not believe in scoping out projects, their dealings with the client are unprofessional. The existing code is severely outdated, not scalable and has been touched by so many different employees that it's like Frankenstein's monster. The position I briefly held had been filled by, at least, 5 other programmers. They have a very specific way he likes code to be written (poorly) and will terminate anyone that questions his methods. Proven fact! Also, they claim to give you unlimited time-off / vacation but will punish you for taking time off even if you have a doctor's note.
