Vantaggi
Friendly environment. Hard-working and caring employees at the lower levels/lower level of management. The pay is good. The healthcare is very good.
Svantaggi
Not enough bodies to write proposals. Rigorous processes for developing proposals that must be learned by trial and error, as they are not documented. Job description changes very frequently, seemingly on a whim from someone far removed from the lower positions. Unreasonable expectations for working hours/response time. Internal assessment shows most are unsatisfied. They have given potential solutions lip service, but no real action taken. Many managers two or more levels above proposal developer are completely out or touch. Too many managers, not enough worker bees. Business Developers have free rein to get whatever they want. There is no push back.
