Pros

9/80 schedule offers flexibility and every other Friday off. Management usually has your back. Wide array of benefits such as HSA, college discounts for family members, 401k,

Cons

Constantly outsourcing jobs to subcontractors instead of hiring actual staff. Got rid of pensions and therefore any incentive to stay at the company and not chase the dollar. All these other reviews about no promotions unless you change jobs is 1000% correct. Always shorthanded and an evident refusal to hire enough employees to get the job done on schedule without OT. For non hourly jobs, OT is straight time, not time and a half, and there is a 5 hour gate, so from hours 40.1-45 you earn 0 dollars. Hourly employees get time and a half for anything over 40. Some managers have absolutely zero clue how anything actually gets done and are poor leaders. Low pay - I rejected their first offer and got them to come up about 8k, then within my first year I got a market adjustment raise because it was still too low.

Pros

Flexible schedule, decent pay, quiet office

Cons

The employees this role supports have quite the egos and are disrespectful. One employee mocked the Me Too movement in a staff meeting, and another employee looked me up and down, checking out my body in a very inappropriate way. Work-life balance isn't great, and expectations are unreasonable. They have bad manners and never say thank you

Pros

Very interesting programs to work on. Good culture of respect and collaboration among the engineering staff. Lots of really smart, highly capable coworkers. Stable work - many of the contracts we have have been with us for years. Good work-life balance. Manassas is well situated for a variety of living options - you can live away from DC and have a reasonably affordable house on a decent sized lot, or you can live towards DC and have easy access to the amenities of the big city (and a reverse commute).

Cons

Pay and benefits are mediocre. Salaries for existing employees gradually fall more and more below market as the maximum "merit" raises possible don't keep pace with industry salary growth, or even with updates to the corporate pay scales. Facility is old, and in many ways run-down. Restrooms haven't been updated in decades, and haven't been deep cleaned or maintained properly for years - several regularly have standing water from leaking plumbing. IT infrastructure and policies are archaic. Two monitors for engineers is not a big ask.
