Pros

Great Mission and innovative place to work. Laid back culture and environment. Good pay and benefits.

Cons

Upward mobility can be difficult as there are few opportunities for advancement. There are very few supervisory/management positions. Management seem to be less knowledgeable than their DoD counterparts. You can never seem to get a straight answer to basic questions. Overall leadership quality is poor. Some folks should manage contracts but not people.
