Pros

You can take a ton of time off if you want or you can work an insane amount of OT to make a lot more money (personally didn't find the work rewarding enough to do OT). Great people to hang out with and great mentors. You will never get fired.

Cons

Procedures for EVERYTHING - really removes the thinking from engineering. 95% of it is paperwork. Little to no access to engineering software. Overall, most of the people are not very driven/passionate (besides the select few).

Pros

This is a last resort job if you can’t find anything else

Cons

The processes and systems in place to get the job done is dismal. There is no official training for the job role. If you make suggestions and try to be helpful you are seen as a threat by management. There is rarely any cross functional communication. It feels like they want things to take a long time and be wrong so that they can charge the govt. more money. (Bc every task you do will have a charge number). Most long timers at the company don’t care about the work being done inefficiently either, bc they have a reason for overtime. Very weird corporate politics / favoritism. (I have never seen it as bad as it is here). Parking is terrible at every location.
