Pros

The company is medium sized but has big dreams and vision. It encourages independent thinking while working with other team members (as employees are called). Telecommuting is possible in many positions and often encouraged. Benefits are good. As a major player in the field of federal contracts, job security is good.

Cons

While open communication is promoted, often unfortunately those who are most affected by a big change or contract win are the last to know. One is asked to take on new assignments and responsibilities without commesurate increase in compensation or title. One's role is often expanded unexpectedly.
