Pros

Great benefits specifically education. Hybrid schedule. Employee Resource groups. Playing important role in National Security. People in my unit actually cared about one another. Pay was good for what I did.

Cons

Location and parking in middle of Cambridge where not ideal. Long commutes home. Hard to move up because people stay for decades.

Pros

Dynamic work environment with many opportunities to get experience in a variety of fields. Management is accommodating and respectful of employee time.

Cons

While Draper works on a wide variety of projects, I found I didn’t get much of a say in what I was working on. I was placed on projects that didn’t align with my stated preferences.
