Pros

When you get to the actual engineering work, it's fun

Cons

I never got "more interesting work" and repeatedly was on the hiring team for younger, less experienced engineers making 15-20k more than me. Our program cycled through toxic program managers and chief engineers that would go on to be promoted

Pros

Great entry level company. You will learn a lot on the job. There is a lot of opportunity for career movement.

Cons

Slow-paced (could be a pro for some people) Lots of "red-tape" / paperwork Management is questionable. Couldn't land prime contracts and over committed on some proposals. This led to massive layoffs.
