Vantaggi

Stability, benefits, and salary are all very nice. It's a great first job for any engineer. Rotational assignments are a possibility when starting as well. There are a myriad of different job types, job locations, and people that you will work with at NG. Chances are, you'll find your niche while working there. The work environment is minimally stressful as well. Defense schedules are generally more drawn out and forgiving then private industry engineering. The work/life balance is quality as well as NG allows for a 9/80 schedule and very flexible work hours (depending on your immediate manager). Benefits, vacation, etc. are all comparable to other defense contractors.

Svantaggi

Morally, you are part of the enormous war-making machine that is the defense industry. Also, at a company the size of NG, feeling like an employee number is typical.

Vantaggi

Job security, nearly impossible to get laid off, Hours for most people are consistent, generally a good benefits package. You are able to jump around laterally within the company very easily. Once you get to T3 and above the salary becomes decent for prime standards. Easy, almost non-existent interviews.

Svantaggi

Not moving fast enough in the current defense market. Lots of red-tape. Turnover at specific sites are insanely high. Promotions take forever and the increase in salary is minimal. They don't care about retention. They will let you walk and give your replacement a sign-on bonus and a higher salary. There are a lot of slackers and old timers riding it out till retirement. Only about a 1/3 of this site is actually productive. Yes-men get into management and ignore technical experts. Agile hiring is a huge issue where people are just thrown onto random teams. Easy, almost non-existent interviews allow people without relevant backgrounds to join teams. Every site operates completely differently.
