Pros

Decent benefits, nice office space and great DC location. It's a good stepping stone for other government opportunities elsewhere, especially good with the FAA.

Cons

Used to be a really great company but declining for 3 years. No upper management, poor guidance to employees. Mgt. rewards those who do the least and complain the most because they don't want to hurt their feelings and those who are honest and hard working get zero recognition or support. HR is for themselves, puts up a false front, yet they seem to run the show. Don't bring any HR related issues to their attention either, or you'll be the next one with a target on your back. Leadership lost their transparency and good employee culture a long time ago and pretends that things are improving, but if you listen closely to employee chatter, they feel over-worked and stressed, under-paid, under-appreciated, misguided. They're losing good employees every month.

Pros

Friendly co-workers, fair pay, interesting work, challenging projects.

Cons

Artificial restrictions on hours in accordance with Musk's mandates. Gov't is very, very cheap about buying software tools with support, which makes development dependent on open-source software and a lot of guesswork. Workflow pace can be glacial. Some lousy project leaders.
