Business Outlook

Pros

There's a decent amount of freedom to propose your own solutions and there are quite a few talented seniors to work under, as well as a great mentorship system.

Cons

There are quite a few limitations on available technologies due to the slow churn of government approval, and your team will likely always be many years behind a team in a non-secure industry--but such it the way of government contracting.
