Great place if you never want to get promoted

Project manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great talent, great resources, fun stuff to work on

Cons

Extreme groupthink, if you havent worked there for 25 years, you dont have an opinion, defense side is dying at a staggering pace, promotions or changing jobs inside the company is difficult; they keep doing the same things over and over and keep losing business; future of the defense side is looking bad over the next 10 years. Senior management doesn't make decisions; they are happy just making their money, scared to make any decision that will jeopardize their reputation; so nothing really gets done.

Pros

Lots of training. Something new everyday to learn Can move to a different job if you can't stand your boss
