Pros

I loved working for Leidos for 15 years of my life. But then… suddenly…

Cons

Intentionally placed under a bad manager when returning from FMLA (due to a cancer diagnosis). I feel I was intentionally fired due to exercising my FMLA rights. NOTE: The 15 years I worked for Leidos I received all positive reviews, with raises included.

Pros

The compensation is barely competitive. The 401(k) is at Vanguard. Where a government hires the lowest bidder, Leidos is well positioned as a low-cost service provider. Leidos has a presentation series by employees on various topics; however, I have been remiss by failing to watch any of those. Leidos has a good work-to-life balance because I am not challenged by my job.

Cons

Leidos does not retain engineers. Leidos does not promote engineers. Although Leidos is a large company, it does not recruit internally. Leidos has decimated the engineering support for the contract I work on. Now, Engineering decisions are being made by Operations, or by vendors, with poor results. Leidos is loud about fake benefits. It touts subscriptions to low-quality training, such as Udemy and Skillshare. When there is a natural disaster near you, Leidos will pester you with demands to contact them--what will a feckless corporation do to help you? Leidos' internal infrastructure is generally unreliable, notably so in IT. Some mandated internal training is woke propaganda.

Pros

You will have a job

Cons

It will be working at this poor excuse for a company. The Houston office in particular is bad, not sure about the others. Basically, just a revolving door of temp workers, very low salaries, and little commitment to employees. Highly unprofessional and unfortunate.
