Pros

Really experienced in government contracting. Benefits were excellant, along with time off and an opportunity to travel the world.

Cons

No stability in government contracting. It is hard to transfer overseas experience into state side experience.

Pros

I worked for KBR in an Army contractor capacity for two years on two tours, one in Kuwait and another in Iraq. Everyone complained about the company all the time, but I didn't have a problem with my job. I just kept my head down, did my job, and left after a year with a big bank account.

Cons

There's the obvious bureaucracy problems, but you're going to have that any time you expand from nothing to tens of thousands of employees in a new theater within a few years. The only cons that I can think of were specific to that particular job, namely working in a war zone in the desert was not a fun place.
