Pros

9/80 work schedule gets you a 3 day weekend every other week. Good people trying to build good product for American servicemembers. Great health/dental benefits, 401k, merit raise and bonus programs.

Cons

Government programs are glacial. Development cycles are measured in decades. If you need constant reinforcement, probably not the best place to work. Sometimes more iimportant the time (money) you spend than the product you build. Government programs are also very susceptible to cuts as administrations and military adjusts their purchasing requirements - adds volatility and drops job security as a result.

Pros

Both pay and benefits were good.

Cons

Both Management and the Union need to be overhauled. Union has too many dead beets working there and too many stupid rules to boot. Kinda like a Good ol' boys theme. Management is clueless, they like to fly by the seat of their pants. When things go wrong ( and that's usually always) they are quick to put the blame on the Employee. A lot of cut throats there, you have to watch your back constantly. Stay away if possible!!!
