Pros

Most co-workers were great. Interesting job. Pay is decent. Lots of different locations and programs to choose from.

Cons

Unethical hiring practices. Req"s are written for specific people, buried in the system, and held open for the minimum amount of time. People are hired and promoted based on who they know, not actual qualifications. Ethics guidelines in general do not seem to apply to management.

Work-life balance is great, ability to work remotely is a plus, training opportunities year round. Meaningful projects and intelligent and professional team members.

Although necessary for the type of work, security can be difficult to deal with at times. But that could be said for all companies that work on high profile projects.
