Pros

Flexible work schedule, tuition assistance for engineering degrees, casual work environment, ability to work on technically challenging projects with a lot of bright people.

Cons

Lack of corporate culture or fit within the GDAIS organization. No career advancement or growth opportunities, trivial or non-existent raises (0%-2%) over the last 5 years, very difficult to get promoted, poor morale among employees, 'check the box' meaningless performance reviews. Management does not seem to care about developing and retaining younger employees. Many employees have left the company over the past few years but that hasn't seemed to change things. Local management is aware of issues but powerless to enact change.

Pros

Good work life balance Projects matter for our war fighters Most co-workers are competent and dedicated More work than people, and moving to other engineering jobs is possible

Cons

Some numbskulls seem to get into senior positions. A "Consolidation" of buildings is underfunded, poorly planned, and drives chaos. The push to squeeze every nickel of efficiency means that there isn't always money for equipment or team building events (below the VP level).
