Pros

Slowly changing from Waterfall to Agile 3 weeks PTO for new hires. Can accrue to twice as much PTO and it carries over year to year

Cons

Pay freeze, limited promotions Limited to no investment in future technologies in favor of meeting short-term numbers. Senior management is slow to remove poor team leads Process for the sake of process Poor long term vision Reactionary leadership, not anticipatory leadership.

Pros

Good work life balance Projects matter for our war fighters Most co-workers are competent and dedicated More work than people, and moving to other engineering jobs is possible

Cons

Some numbskulls seem to get into senior positions. A "Consolidation" of buildings is underfunded, poorly planned, and drives chaos. The push to squeeze every nickel of efficiency means that there isn't always money for equipment or team building events (below the VP level).
