Ventajas
benefits, patriotism and support for the country and military, high technology and what that means for the future in general, okay salary (not great, but okay enough to live off of, well, if you are single with no children that is), work with smart professionals who generally show each other respect.
Desventajas
Uninspiring environment - gray cube walls and complete quiet which I find maddening, lack of mental challenge....I cannot believe I get paid for what I do at all...a junior high student could do my week's work after school in about 6-8 hours time. Many employees feel like they have nothing to do. The company is laying off like crazy, and everyone is afraid to say they have nothing to do or they will be terminated. This company, despite being technologically savvy, is behind the times in terms of work-life balance and what incoming generations (X & Y in particular) actually want out of their careers. Also, many managers here say they don't micromanage. By that what they really mean is they don't pay attention to you at all or have any idea what you are doing daily, or weekly, or even monthly. How do I say this......Many of the employees are 'gray' or 'vanilla'...boring with no vision. It is tough to be around them, so uninspiring.
