Pros

Partners with customers, predominantly Defence to provide engineering and design solutions and support the acquisition and operation of mission critical capability. Engineering expertise is the core of the business. The focus being modifying, redesigning, testing and certifying, and extending the life of capability. Also supports Defence with facility management and operations.

Cons

Internally there is little room for advancement and career opportunities, and externally is dependent on Defence contracts for its workforce.
