Pros
Standard contract renewal, 5 years with some 0.5-1 year extensions depending on customer requirements. That is to say the only pros is the pay which is only better than ok.
Cons
The CSM spends too much time looking for "gotcha" moments from employees to chew out lower level managers/supervisors and focuses more on a good looking spreadsheet rather than ensuring mission success. Our systems are old and require replacement parts, suitable substitutes for obsolete items, and/or new upgrades that have sat for years as still incomplete due to the "overhaul" of engineering requirements meant to improve the process. So instead of seeing the problem and setting out solutions to effectively spend budget funds that will ensure fully mission capable systems for the immediate future and possibly 1-5 years out (5 year plan, not really new). We just see long wait times for parts that inevitably leads to total system failure in the near future as we limp our systems along in order to satisfy attendance points. btw. several folks were told that they would not be hired for a position regardless of their actual qualifications unless you are well liked
