Pros

Some talented engineers to work with

Cons

Well the trouble with SSL is they never built on their original success and now are woefully uncompetitive. Which makes it rather difficult to work there without wanting to leave since there is no future. Lack of equipment, unrealistic timescales and budgets make for an unpleasant employee experience in the engineering department. Supposedly there was a yearly pay review, well i was never even asked to one. Management are the usual megalomaniac types and fail to reward staff for their hard work, whilst display a lack of faith in your abilities despite successful results. Lack of HR department leaves little options to negate the poor treatment and it seems just a general fact they dont appreciate engineers. Strange really since without them the business would fold, not that it hasnt done that a couple of times already!

Pros

Managers are open to new ideas, minimal micromanaging. Exciting environment with great new technology. Different every day, never boring. Benefits are good with 401k match, affordable insurance and fairly generous PTO.

Cons

Pay could be better, but that's more the industry than the company.

Pros

I was involved in a great project at a major US government institution in Washington, DC. That was fun and challenging. The technology is cutting edge. I learned a lot. I was also managing a project of this size for the first time which was fun. I liked the people I worked with.

Cons

Communication between upper management and me was absent. I was completely blind-sided by my firing. I was also told while I was on vacation in Europe. I thought that was rather tasteless. Furthermore, I am still waiting for some of my expenses to be paid.
