Pros

Hmm. Twenty word minimum in this field if I want to get past this screen. They paid me. On time.

Cons

Twenty more words. I don’t like to be mean. One star should say it all. There was bad mojo going on while I was there. Culture clash between divisions. Now the military division spun off, so it’s probably totally different now.

Pros

Very friendly and professional environment. Coworkers are immensely helpful and smart, and the projects are very challenging, making it a great place to learn as an entry-level engineer. Great benefits and work/life balance. Transparent managers and senior direction.

Cons

Intimidating for younger professionals to get to know older/more experienced co workers. Some teams are small, and inter-team social interaction is very limited. HQ is in a remote town, decent commute from Boston if you have a car, can be painstaking otherwise.
