Pros

This job was on a winter contract in McMurdo Station, Antarctica. This is a great opportunity to see the seventh continent while getting a free trip through New Zealand (we deploy va Christchurch, NZ).

Cons

There is a lot of unnecessary turnover due to a lot of government budget constraints. I know employees typically blame PAE, but most of the problems stem from too many cuts.
