      Pros

      A lot of high skilled and talented employees in ALL areas Great pay and benefits Wonderful vacation time

      Cons

      Really odd purchasing process, take way to long to buy something Different organizational units are completely out of sync This company of 600 is run likes it's a company of 100,000, NGC/Lockheed and Boeing are more efficient and have less red tape Program management here is very weird, extremely inefficient, can't seem to make decisions. Everyone is passing the buck.

      Fun Jobs, Odd Management

      Pros

      Everyone there loves what they're doing. You will probably never find another place so full of people who love their jobs so much. That alone makes it a cool culture. There are a lot of innovations and very cool things to work on from the mechanical to electrical to software.

      Cons

      They aren't the most software-friendly environment. The founders were mostly mechanical in disciplines, so software scheduling is sometimes a little bizarre. Software decisions are often made on history, not necessarily what's good going forward and you end up stuck with those decisions (as does the company). Overall, they have the worst IT support on the planet. The individual workers are really good, positive and helpful, but the structure is horrific. Makes the environment limiting and difficult to get technical things done. Too bad, because the team on the ground is high-quality.
