Business outlook
Pros
Large company has many opportunities for moving roles and/or locations and working on various projects. The research and technology team is full of young, talented researchers. Fantastic work-life balance with pay given for any hours worked overtime. Benefits, including 401K match (you put in 8% of your pay, they match 6% + 3% bonus), are top notch.
Cons
The buildings are depressing and outdated, especially at older defense sites. Besides the research team, many of the employees are senior, conservative, and traditional. As a woman, working there was sometimes difficult and uncomfortable. The work can be very slow, bogged down with approval processes and many many status meetings.
