Business Outlook

Pros

9/80 schedule and flexibility, cool work, smart people to work with (sometimes), good pto accruing. Learn new concepts and techniques (sometimes), great place to build a career if you know the right people.

Cons

Only path to upward mobility is if you're friends with the managers or they really like you. Qualifications and experience don't matter when promoting from within. Low pay for experienced professionals (about 10% below market), poor medical benefits, struggling to recruit the right talent for some of the work they're trying to do. They have a long way to go for diversity & inclusion.

Pros

Good company to work for with great benefits and PTO. Salary was excellent for the location that I worked (cape Canaveral). Management was good except...

Cons

My only complaint was that much of the work I did could have been done from home to save me a long drive to work but upper management seemed to have a phobia about employees not being seen at the office. The times I was able to work from home I got much more done.
