Business outlook
Pros
Not "just" an engineering or computer programming company - opportunities for people with skills in production, marketing, communications, human resources, training, etc. All are needed to realize the next invention. Competitive pay and health benefits More work/life balance than when first hired Quicker advancement opportunities for those willing to relocate or to move into a different department Strong ethics & drive to innovate Faster vacation accrual for new hires than when first hired
Cons
Government contracts ebb and flow - be prepared for cycles of expansion and shrinking No pension for new hires - however, there are 401K options Recruiting / Hiring procedures take a long time
