Solid job, normal benefits, but feel a little left out on JSC campus, not a lot of career growth on contracts. - Associate Technical Professional - Systems Engineering KBR Employee Review

Pros

Normal benefits, good communication from management, and pretty good job security

Cons

If you work as a contractor for a government agency (e.g. NASA), probably won't have a lot of visibility to KBR directly and job growth is directly tied to when older employees leave. There is a little flexibility to move around laterally, but not a lot to move upwards.

Pros

Flex time within a pay month, flexible schedules, an outstanding benefits package including a 401k retirement plans with 100% match on 6% of pretax and Roth contribution elections, several investment options, personalized financial planning through fidelity, employee stock purchase program, student debt retirement savings match program, and HSA options; several health insurance options with a wide range of monthly premiums and available benefits, FSA, HSA, vision, dental (Delta Dental), tuition assistance, PTO, holidays, and much more.

Cons

No automatic/across the board annual cost of living pay adjustments, only 5.3 hours total of PTO (with milestone increases for incumbents) each pay period (no separate sick, personal, annual, vacation, etc.), only 9 paid holidays with one floating holiday, no official employee evaluations or measured expectations, many employment pros and cons are dependent on supervisor on the contract - not corporate.
