Pros

Big company, big name, good resume bullet. Mission was relevant and high visibility, not so much any more.

Cons

Leadership massively changed about a year ago for the worse. From what I could tell (they don't tell line managers anything here) the company bosses up North let their greed get the better of them. Now, all of the programs here in Tampa are burning down slowly but surely. Management from up North fly down regularly because they can't figure out how to lead this place. You can tell they don't care at all about the employees in Tampa. It is the cyber Titanic.

Pros

The people you work for directly are wonderful professionals. They listen and truly work together as a team, sharing their ideas and critiques freely and fairly. Even the managers, leads and program mangers are the best I have worked with in a while.

Cons

The Csuite are not as inventive and very risk averse. They cry about needing to keep talent and keep the knowledge base from being lost. But when a program gets canceled or stop work, if you arent at one of their main work sites like in Dulles or Gilbert, you are out of luck now with their push of no "remote" work. And by remote that means not at whatever site the managers are at. And it isnt the managers choice either as the corporate pushes them to deny "remote" or make their lives miserable if they try to keep current employees that could fill the role at other offices.
