Pros
Potential of opportunities to work on Defense for the United States. Very Good Health Coverage.
Cons
Very delayed and inaccurate feedback on performance. It appears to be that Program and Project Management have unwritten criteria that their dissatisfaction is to be voiced to the employee officially as "we are over budget", then to the employees department supervision as "very dissatisfied with performance." A worst case scenario is to meet the employee in the hall and tell them verbally, that they were correct is their assesment and results, but be unwilling to correct their official input. Ironically, the program personnel will use your results and output to advance their program. If my results were unsatisfactory, then why would you use them and have me update them?
