Pros

An average paycheck and not much else.

Cons

Discrimination to minorities is rampant. If you are not part of the old buddies network you are doomed and set to fail. The management allows bullying of minorities with no consequence to the senior managers that do it. This is done in violation of all federal laws and in a company that swindles the US government in their contracts. The Operations and Manufacturing organization has some really rough managers as well as some of the General Managers of the programs. Watch for the sports clans of old surfers and bicyclists as they support each other and push out minorities. It is a racist company as mentioned in other reviews.

When several programs peak at the same time the hours start to creep up pretty quickly.

Pros

Good work-life balance with flexible scheduling

Cons

Over the past several years, the company has lacked a clear long-term strategy, resulting in frequent reorganizations, shifting priorities, and multiple rounds of layoffs. Decision-making often feels reactive rather than strategic, creating uncertainty and making it difficult to execute long-term plans. Internal processes can also be overly complex, slowing down work and reducing efficiency.
