Pros
*In the right organization, management is supportive of career and educational development *It is possible to advance in a rewarding career while maintaining work/life balance; it is expected that employees leave after a 40-hour workweek *Many opportunities to take other jobs, learn new skills, get involved in special projects *Continuing education tuition assistance, leadership development/rotational programs
Cons
*Funding uncertainty on programs can occur in the light of government budget problems *Large defense contractor means bureaucracy that can sometimes be frustrating *IT security means software and hardware tools available to employees are almost always out of date and limited in options
