Pros
It's a decent job for a big, stable company. They do a lot of military as well as unclassified work, so there's some opportunity to move around, laterally. You'll have an opportunity to get a security clearance doing that, so that's a help. But there's never any time to review lessons learned, it's always just "on to the next project".
Cons
Upper management seems to think we all care about quality, but middle management only cares about making the contract bonus. I'd love to do a better job, but when management bids an 18 month task to be done in 14 months, with a bonus if it's done in 12 months, well guess what? It's done (poorly) in 12 months.
