      Pros

      Flexible employment, many opportunities to learn as an engineer. Family-friendly workplace. Lots of vacation and sick time available to earn and use.

      Cons

      Terrible 1st level supervisors. Low pay. Government rules and regulations actually prevent this place from being cost-effective.

      Pros

      A lot of opportunity if you are white and want to succeed go there.

      Cons

      Only if you are white, you will succeed even if you have 1.5/4.0 GPA. I'm working with them and they sent training and everything to me nobody even looking my application for training and PSLF because I'm from Africa. They changed the policy technically we suppose work one a day a week from office but they'll force to work 3 days a week from office.

      Pros

      I cant think of any as its a Federal job with no accountability, no efficiency, and a huge waste of taxpayers and rate payers money. A job for someone who wants to retire and do nothing.

      Cons

      Horrible management with lots of turnover and no accountability. They ask to answer surveys and yet never change or offer to change their approach.
